“HP has no real world occult, it has nothing that even resembles real world occult, there is no evidence of HP readers being drawn to real world occult...”

Those are not “facts”.

They are expressions of your opinion.

Now how about some facts....

How about it? Are you just going to say other people don't have the facts, or are you going to give some? Tell us exactly how the HP books are based on real-world occult.

No those are facts. The fact is that there is absolutely nothing in any of the HP books that bears even the slightest resemblance to any documented occult practices. Magic in the HP universe simply doesn’t work that way, if you’ve seen the movies you saw the beginning you know that Harry’s magic occurs before he even knows what wizards are, you also know that wizarding talent is handed down genetically in a pattern identical to recessive traits. And there’s nothing about occult practices in the real world that shows it as a genetic trait. Those are facts, and you saying they’re not changes nothing they ARE fact and your denial just shows your own desperation.
