Re: Unpopular opinion
"So the point you're trying to make is that Harry has behaved like many normal people do "
I've lost count of the number of times I've dressed up as a Nazi for a party.
"he is therefore disqualified from expressing an opinion about a thing that normal people do?"
Actually, yes. You should be disqualified from expressing an opinion on whether something mildly addictive should be banned from society when you, yourself, have done all sorts of irresponsible things over the course of your time, and you are totally insulated from real society and the consequences of your actions by money and immense privilege.
Remember the black spider memos? We need to make it clear to the dolt that his opinions should be immedaitely and vociferously discarded.
