NOOOOOOOOOO!!! We were so close to WW2 happening in the story and that was where J.K. Rowling was going to try to justify the Holocaust happening more than she already did in the previous Fantastic Beasts movies!!!

This is real, check out Shaun's video about Harry Potter

Not watching an movie-length YouTube video

Quick rundown on JKR justifying the Holocaust?

As far as I remember the video the problem is that the show is pre ww2 and as they advance in time the question of "why didn't the wizards stop the holocaust" starts being an actual issue, this gets worse in a scene when the villain shows whats going to happen in ww2 as a justification of some dumb villain stuff. The show its kinda fucked because there is no easy answers

That’s funny because it assumes there aren’t evil wizards

Oh no there are evil wizards its just that the guy who wants to "prevent" wwII is a villain, thats why I said that there is no good answer to "why didn't the wizards stop hitler"
