Irony is that the entire Harry Potter series is like discriminating against people for who they are is wrong.

To be fair, I'm pretty sure the slave race of house elves continue being slaves because "they love being slaves".

Didn't Hermione lead a campaign to liberate house elves but was laughed at by everyone until she dropped it?

Then Harry frees one elf and is considered a hero while the person trying to solve the systemic problems is a whiny bitch. She's showing how she thinks about the world with that one.
