I started this series back before I knew what a piece of shit Rowling was and for whatever reason I decided to get drunk and pirate the remaining movies. And fuck, they should have been named Liberal Meritocracies And How To Worship Them.
Yes, I know 
Newt is charming and autistic no matter what anyone says and the discourse around him being an example of nontoxic masculinity is great. The stuff about Dumbledore/Grindelwald being played straight in the second movie and then being gay again in the third (but now Grindelwald is no longer played by Depp?) is whatever. I’ll skip straight to the chase. This series seemed to just invoke the Holocaust and then forget about it.
In the second movie, it’s shown that Grindelwald has seen the future. He’s seen the Holocaust and the dropping of the atomic bomb and he shows this to his followers, claiming to want to stop it. He’s an opportunist, of course, because he’s Very Evil. But then in the third movie they confirm that his visions of the future are correct. In fact, it focuses on a crucial wizarding election held in Weimar Germany in 1933. But, twist! They have a magical creature that can tell when someone is Very Good, which lets them do that instead of an election. So the Very Evil man tries to win the election by tricking people, but the Very Good person wins because of the actions of the protagonists. So everything turned out great and nothing went wrong.
Oh right, the Holocaust. They literally do not address it. The dissolution of the Weimar Republic is not mentioned. It’s still coming. All the main characters saw it and know that it’s true and is coming and it’s just forgotten about because the Very Good person got magically elected. It really pissed me off, tbh.
Again, I know
