What are James Potter's flaws?

And suddenly all those feelings get mixed up in a terrible way, and you are sixteen and just want to get back at them and so to make them pay for real and perceived slights.

And he is crushing hard on a girl, who doesn’t seem to reciprocate his feelings and is best friends with his enemy.

Because you can understand James’ anger, not even the Weasley, the ones called the Blood Traitors for marrying muggles were ousted of the “Sacred 28”, and the underlying insult that it was: that The Potter family was lesser than the other magical family.

Why wasn't Queen as successful in America as in other countries? Then, after Radio Ga Ga, they couldn't even get into the top 40 in America even when these songs were top 10 hits everywhere else in the world.

And he goes too far, gets a kick out of showing off he is better than his enemy. At this point, the enemy is so loathed and loathsome, he has no empathy for him.

No one wants to be called a mudblood: are the Muggleborns suddenly turned into mud golems, beasts with no real human blood and thus undeserving of dignity?

And most people are cheering on to see those people pay too.

What are some healthy ways to start losing weight without risking starvation mode or extreme food restriction?

And yes, James Potter’s actions are rooted in frustration against injustice and a feeling of righteousness, after all the people who call muggleborns “mudbloods” and use dark magic are the bad people… shouldn’t they be stopped?

The thing is for all of James good heart, things are usually never that simple:

Living through a civil war, watching people die around, witnessing how it affects his classmates and his best-friend personally, being adored and respected for his talent. All that created a complex :

J.K. Rowling said that 65% of people in Britain are transgender. Where did she come up with that statistic?

Because you can understand James’ frustration, James who was only loved and adored by his parents, and he had listen to Sirius talk about how his mother keep insulting him “blood traitor, shame of my blood, and so on about Voldemort’s purge and that’s terrifying”.

And then your enemies do the worst mistake imaginable : they paint themselves with the evil crowd, the evil side.

And so, there is the part of James hating the other kid for all those righteous reasons and there is another part of James hating the same kid for all those silly and childish reasons.

What is the original source of the discord between Princes Harry and William? Does it go back to their childhood, or did it start with Meghan Markle?

He is also immature, jealous and doesn’t really understand boundaries or rather pushes them and also how to deal with those feelings.

And that’s a feeling he learned on the playground of Hogwarts, to be the biggest bully and not be prey, but to be feared and respected…

And if you feel entitled to call people that, why wouldn’t they be entitled to kick your ass?

What if Supergirl was a baby and not a teenager when she left Krypton? Who do you think will find her? What do you think things would be like?

And still everyone, rightfully, see him as Quidditch Hero. He can bring joy to everyone, and take their mind off nightmares.

And it keeps escalating, and no one or nearly no one tells him off.

Frustration & Righteousness.

How can I stop drinking?

well that’s most of bullying issues, their confusion of those two things : fear and respect.

Those feelings of frustration are slowly snowballing into something more harmful: scapegoating.

“you left your home not knowing if you had find the dark mark above it and your family dead”.

What are the beliefs of those who think climate change is a conspiracy theory? What do they predict will happen if we do not address it?

So that’s for me James flaws: his lack of discernment as a teenager, letting his frustration and anger overcome his good heart and falling for the scapegoating trap, where you confuse righteousness with personal pride.

James Potter had good reasons to not like most of Slytherin house.

Because James is also a teenager, and he has pride, like most people, he doesn’t like to be insulted or attacked.

Why are American women so ugly nowadays?

Because you can understand James’ dislike, James whose family is infamously pro muggle, with his grandfather Harry Potter, who stood up to the Minister of Magic during WWI, as he rejected the idea of letting civilians muggle die while watching and not intervening and James himself is 100% following those same ideals.

So at least someone is doing something.

Of course the teachers keep giving him detentions, many many of them detentions and punishments, but how could the teachers really understand what’s happening on the ground? it’s not like those enemies are attacking them when the teachers are around, no, the enemies are stalking them and trying to harm his friend Remus, who never hurt or bullied anyone and just wants to have a school education, thank you very much.

Even Captain James T. Kirk was trapped in a woman's body. Don't you think he'd support trans people?

And most the students, don’t go after him, because maybe they don’t like what he does precisely, but they are not seeing the adults doing anything effective against the enemies, the ones calling them mudbloods.

But while I cannot condone what he did, I won’t condemn him for it, because for the better or for the worse, James Potter was one of the enemies of Voldemort and one of the victims of Voldemort, a victim of the war, and he was a perfect example of the imperfect victim, he was an awful ass about it, but boy was he not the bad guy.

What type of crossdresser are you?

And who do you think you are to call people that!

No one is protesting against his ego, his judgment.

And you don’t need to be a direct witness to the war to be impacted and traumatized, it’s enough to know of what happened to people around you and it’s more than enough to live in the fear of being next, which all of the characters of the books talked about:

Why do liberals think same-sex marriage is alright? The Bible makes it very clear that it's not alright to be gay, why can't liberals understand that?

No one wants to be the prey. And how much do you compromise on your morals to save yourself that humiliation.
