bboy_mn:

Isn't that pretty close to what Hitler, Mussolini, and the Emperor of
Japan said?  In essense, we are the superior race and the minions will
bow to us. 

Didn't Idi Amin Dada, Hitler, and Pol Pot try to 'cull them', and make
them 'forget anthing but their servitude'. Believe me these men wiped
out millions of their fellow 'vermin'.

Dictator's always have benevolent excuses for their brutality, but
that doesn't make it any less brutal. 

If Grindelwald was recognised as a Dark Wizard, then he called on Dark
Forces in his magic, and he used that magic to do dark things.

So while it was a great little story, and painted Grindelwald in an
/apparent/ benevolent light, he was still just another psychotic Pol Pot.

Of course, that's just my opinion.
