to:

* If you bully one of your classmates and he grows up to be evil, everything you and your buddies did to him (including attempted murder) becomes retroactively justified and is totally fine.

to:

* Having an entire race of sentient beings for use solely as slaves is a-okay and anyone who disagrees and/or wants the aforementioned sentient beings to have rights is weird. [[note]] house-elves [[/note]]

to:

* If you want to date your best friend's sister but aren't sure how to talk to him about it, don't bother! Just kiss her in front of a huge crowd of people, he'll probably be okay with it.

to:

* Do you hate being the MAGIC CHOSEN ONE because all it has ever done is bringing you the death of your friends, contempt and jealousy from your rivals and even from your own best friend, the breakup with your love interest, the murder of your original family which in turn put you with an abusive adoptive family and years later killed the closest thing you ever had as a father, and last but not least made you a living walking target for the most psychotic cult leader ever lived? Well fuck you then because thats life of being the MAGIC CHOSEN ONE so just shut it and take it as a man. Fate has decided to make you the MAGIC CHOSEN ONE and no one says no to fate without harsh punishment so there is nothing you can do about it. So forget your dreams about a normal life because you ain't getting it until fate thinks you have done your job for it.
* If one subset of society is different from the rest of society, of course it is wrong for outright hatred and genocide between the two groups. That said, the two groups should remain completely separated and oblivious of each other. If someone born to one group has attributes of the other group, they should immediately join the former, basically having few connections to their families. Nobody will ever question this status quo. EVER.

* If you're arranging a high-profile Tournament, there's no need to ensure that the crowd can actually see anything that's going on during 2/3 of it. Spectator events are overrated.

** Warping the warp: Go ahead and abandon a juvenile delinquent for an entire year. If you offer him a chance at redemption when it's too late for him to take it, you'll still go down in history as a good person, not a manipulative bastard who kept crucial information to yourself.
* It's better to leave a child in an abusive home than to run the risk that he'll grow up to be proud, spoiled, or egotistical.
** [[SarcasmMode Because it's not like kids in abusive homes are people, prone to the same character flaws as the rest of us. It's completely impossible for a child in an abusive home to become negatively warped by the experience. Nope, every kid in an abusive home is an absolute saint]].
*** Exactly, just look at [[RealityEnsues Snape or Merope Gaunt.]]



* If the BigBad is a result of you being a sanctimonious bastard and leaving a child with "dark tendencies" in an abusive household then the obvious solution is to do it again to another kid.
* It's perfectly healthy for a society to be so isolationist they don't have the slightest idea of what basic technologies or clothing rules exist in the outside culture. In fact, play it for comedy: it's not creepy, it's funny!

** Also, if you are TheHero, you don't deserve to be punished for ''anything.'' Attack your sobbing rival with a deadly weapon? Simply express surprise that the weapon was indeed deadly, and you'll be let off with a slap on the wrist. Even if you could reasonably be convicted of, say, [[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Assault aggravated assault]], your status as the hero means you don't deserve punishment for it. Anyone who implies that you do is ObviouslyEvil.
