I haven't read this since I was a kid, time to read it with the knowledge I now have of JKR...
And oh boy does she really go hard with some fatphobia in this first book. You're really telling me she isn't fatphobic but then constantly uses Dudley's weight as the butt of a joke. Even the word choice here - describing "kind" characters as 'plump' and "mean" characters as 'pigish'. Like stop making fun of fat people JK
