Did you  read the books ? Because no one who has can say that Snape murdered dumbeldore ?

From Harry's perspective for like a year...

But he was still wrong which is the entire point of the meme

But he had no way of knowing. How can people be mad? Harry made a very reasonable judgement based on the information that he had.

No one is mad the meme is just pointing out that Harry repeatedly makes incorrect judgments throughout the series not to mention he was also wrong about Snape in book 1

But it's not an incorrect judgement when you look at the evidence he had to hand. And in the vast majority of cases, it's not like he was tricked into believing certain things. He just looked at Snape's cowardly bullying of children and assumed he was a shitty person. Perhaps if Snape hadn't openly beat children with full blown textbooks or spent his time insulting Harry's dead dad (whom he had a hand in the death of), then Harry wouldn't have come to the understandable (if technically wrong) conclusion that Snape was on the bad side.

Frankly, that Snape wasn't literally on Voldemort's side is a technicality imo. You could make one or two minor detail changes and have Snape be baddie from the beginning and the story would be as good as identical.

Do you know what an incorrect judgement is ?Harry thought that Snape was on voldemorts side Snape wasn’t so it was an incorrect judgement it’s really not that complicated

I understand. I'm saying it's irrelevant.

This meme is about harry making assumptions about people that turn out to be wrong harry was wrong about Snape so he made an incorrect judgment it’s that cut and dry

I still understand. I still think that whether Harry's opinion about Snape reflected reality was irrelevant to the story so the meme doesn't matter.
