This is my biggest gripe with Harry Potter apart from the anti-semitic stereotypes running all the banks. What the fuck is even the point of finding out you're actually a wizard who gets to go to a magical wizard school and have all kind of great adventures, when at the end of it all you still find out when you graduate you have to work a shitty bureaucracy job in an office doing wizard paperwork. Bitch if I'm a wizard I'm just fucking off to the woods and using magic to satisfy all my basic needs. Who needs a new iPhone when you can shoot fireballs and shit? It's like "Oh yeah there's magic and they can easily use it to produce a post-scarcity society but instead they just keep doing capitalism oh and by the way all the banks are run by these little goblin creatures with giant hook noses."
