maybe there's a whole lot if real life drama's inb the books

there is real life drama in the books. not just the pureblood, half-blood, muggleborn thing. there's also racism just like in real life.
for example: people think differently of hagrid just because he's half giant on his mother's side.

am i right or was that stupid of me 2 bring it up?
You are right hpluver, there are other examples of discrimination/racism throughout the novels. Lupin for example will not be given a job as he is a werewolf.
Lots of real life situations are played out in Harry's world. The bridges collapsing and the giant attacks at the start of Half Blood Prince are very simillar to terrorist attacks in our world.
