Magpie:
For me, I guess that's the reason. Because the Muggle world is my
world, so I know there are people with whom to sympathize, and I wind
up being sort of indignant that "we" are always being shown as such
nothings whenever we're onscreen. Because we're not.

But then I have follow up question, which I really should have
mentioned in my initial post, hehe. Because I do understand the
argument that you just wrote, but at the same time I find it
confusing.
What makes you believe that this IS your world? What makes you
believe that you are the same as muggles of potterverse? Because if I
could understand it, I would have much easier time to understand
underlying reasoning and this is really all I am looking for.
I mean, I said many times that I think that world is reflection of
ours, but to fully accept this world as ours? I just do not see how,
because wizards do not live near us, no? I mean, it sounds ridiculous
when I write it like this, but at the same time I do not know how
else to write it. There is no parallel world to ours, therefore I am
just unable to see myself as muggle, you know?
