A University of Wisconsin-La Crosse student had a serious complaint for his campus official Hate Response Team: he was very upset by a Harry Potter mural in a college dorm.
The mural, in the Laux Residence Hall, depicts Neville Longbottom, a character from the Harry Potter films. The nerdy Neville was played by actor Matthew Lewis, who blossomed into a notable hunk post-puberty. The mural shows him as both a geeky boy and an attractive young man transformed, according to the murals caption, by a stay at the Laux Residence Hall itself.
The depiction of this metamorphosis represents our ideal society and everything I am trying to fight against, wrote the offended student, whose name is redacted. It represents white power. Man power. Cis power. Able power. Class power. ECT [sic] ect. I am angry that I know the people who put this mural up, and I am anger [sic] because I know the people who let this mural be put up. Like I said earlier, maybe I am being a little sensitive, but it is how I feel. This represents, to me, our society, and I do not want it up on this wall. Why do we need a BEFORE and AFTER?
The complaint, unearthed by a Heat Street records request for reports of bias on UW-La Crosses campus, was filed in April. We confirmed the mural remains up, despite the students complaint. By deadline, neither of the students who painted Neville Longbottoms poster had responded to Heat Streets inquiry.
UW-La Crosse established its Hate Response Team more than a decade ago to address acts of bias, prejudice, intolerance and hate on campus.

I am so stealing that...
THE YEAR WAS 2081, and everybody was finally equal. They weren't only equal before God and the law. They were equal every which way. Nobody was smarter than anybody else. Nobody was better looking than anybody else. Nobody was stronger or quicker than anybody else. All this equality was due to the 211th, 212th, and 213th Amendments to the Constitution, and to the unceasing vigilance of agents of the United States Handicapper General.
Well played, ma’am.
They just need to get their asses kicked. I will volunteer to do this at their chosen safe space.
What the HELL is wrong with so many people in this current generation of American youth?

“Im upset, too. It looks like the mural was executed by the same person who restored that painting of Jesus in Spain a few years back.”
It sure didn’t look like Jesus went to Laux in that “after” picture.
Chuckles.
C’mon you know that woman meant well when she did the “restoration”.
Here is some of her other work:

Even Jesus needs a safe space in today's crazy world!
The graduating Class of 2036 will look back at 2016, full of neurotic, intolerant sheeple, and alternate between laughing and weeping. “Grandad, were you guys really that naive and needy? Did your friends really support groups like Black Lives Matter, even though they were in the business of killing cops and white people? Did the colleges really become racially Re-segregated again? Wow. Amazing!! How was this allowed to happen?”
Does anyone know what ‘cispower’ means? I have tried to figure it out to no avail.
It is the power & freedom that “normal” people (those who accept their “birth gender”) have to live their lives without worrying about whether or not they might actually be some other sex...
The alternative being what? Unable power? No class power? No power at all?
This whiny little "thing" needs an ass beating in the worst way possible. Their victim-hood mentality and utter rejection of anything that might actually SUCCEED at doing... anything... needs to be utterly demolished and the error of their cringe-worthy ways rubbed in their face.
A liberal lesbian, probably of color or just self-hating white, complains that the actor who played a fictional character named big butt turned into a decent looking person in real life.
And yet women like her ignore ISIS sex slaves, female genital mutilation, honor killings, Muslim rape gangs ... they are focused on luxury and trivia while a billion women want the most basic right to walk to market without wearing a bag, to choose a husband, to not be killed for refusing either.
Excellent post!
Poor little snowflake must have had a Confundus Charm or Babbling Curse put upon him. He needs a Bewitched Snowball spell cast on him.
