HP (Harry Potter) for GrownupsCarol:
We're getting nowhere in the House-Elves are/are not slaves debate,
and those of us who feel that the House-Elf ownership is sufficiently
different from human slavery to justify the use of that loaded term
(All in favor of slavery, say "Aye!") are also getting nowhere. Call
it a draw as neither side seems likely to persuade the other to give
an inch.
Let me start from scratch. Here are the points that seem to me
indisputable, and I'm not going to support them with canon yet again
as they've all been covered in the previous discussion
Angel:
In moments like these, one realises "it is not the spoon that bends, it is yourself". <vbg> I do so love that line :)
