Voldemort Could've Been a CEO, Not A Dark Lord: The Psychology of Trauma and Neglect

DISCLAIMER: We talk about the existing media of Harry Potter to share our thoughts and interpretations in this video. We reject any and all transphobic and misogynistic values shared by the author of Harry Potter, and do not condone her actions or opinions in any way.

Welcome to another episode of What's On Your Minda (WOYM)! We discuss the concept of nature vs. nurture in shaping Voldemort and Harry Potter, and their choices throughout the series. Lots of debate, including Dumbledore's responsibility to both characters, psychopathy and sociopathy in functioning adults, PTSD in children, and why Harry Potter remains a favourite!

Content warnings: Childhood trauma/abuse/neglect, homicide, suicide, PTSD, torture, psychological abuse and manipulation, death, as present in the Harry Potter universe.
