Isn't the point here not that Zeihan has the wrong idea about Harry Potter, but that Zeihan has certain conclusions he wants to draw and will force every bit of evidence until it allows him to draw those conclusions? It's really not about Harry Potter at all: to get caught up on the Harry Potter (mis)analogy just because it has a fanbase is really not getting to the meat of the argument.
