So the channel is focused on female representation, basically?

Is more a sort of tv tropes video, explaing tropes and their aspect while offering a feminist-progresive perpective of it.

[up][up] Not solely, but many of their videos are about female representation.

The Take examines the "Bombshell" character and what it says about how society views female beauty. It also looks at the way the actresses who played such characters were treated in real life.

The Take examines the Bimbo trope and what it says about how people view sexually active women in society. It also examines the validity of reclaiming the term similar to how "himbo" is viewed as more positive now.

Apparently they made a very controversial video about how Harry Potter is a bad person. So controversial that it's now private. I found out from a response to it showing up in my recs.

Yeah, I watched that. Not one of their better videos.

Is it because Harry's a jock or whatever the usual awful tumblr take is?

I feel like there are legitimate arguments to maybe be made for why Harry is a bad person, but that's more to do with how the universe in which he exists is bad.

I'm not even sure I'd call Harry a bad person. He has flaws but is ultimately a good person when it comes down to it.

I think the "Harry is bad" takes are a combination of Ron the Death Eater and people seeing him as some kind of avatar of J.K. Rowling who has been revealed to be a less-than-perfect (to put it very mildly) person recently.

I'd imagine it's also an evolution of the "Harry is kinda useless" narrative where he often tends to succeed through allies, luck, and The Chosen One-ness rather than skill.

Also, isn't The Cursed Child predicated on him being a lousy father?
