Deathly Hallows Reaction - Could do Better, Sorry

Maybe she didn`t make the statement,but give me the proof it is otherwise.

Simply considering  matter of numbers:the only Slytherin without
visible evil is snobish Slughorn,the second one is questionably good
Snape and the third is long ago deceased Phineas Nigellus,however
probably his "goodness" as well doubtful as Snape`s .
On the other hand we have only one evidently evil Gryffindor,Peter
Pettigrew.

The worse message from DH is the lack of good characters in the young
generation in Hogwarts, Slytherin was the only house who didn't join
in the fight and Pansy tried to sell-out Harry to Voldemort.

Tha next thing is characterisation.Do you remember how Slytherins were
described?
They are
ugly(pugfaced,fat),stupid(Goyle,Grabbe),malicious,cowardly(most of
them in all books),at the best selfish(Snape) or pathetically
weak(Malfoys).

Even the Dumbledore`s remark  he always thought they sorted the kids
too early when I understand the implication was that Snape is so brave
he should have been a Gryffindor, but it still makes it seem like
nothing could be worse than being a Slytherin.
