In that, Harry tries to redeem Malfoy and builds a friendship with him by treating science as a dark art. He then gets Malfoy to use science to prove racism is bullshit. After struggling with his core belief being proven wrong, Malfoy eventually reaches out to save Hermiione after she falls off a roof even though he knows she would be fine because magic. He's deeply ashamed of doing so because he still hasn't completely overcome the prejudices he was raised with, but he's making tangible progress towards doing so.
The Methods of Rationality Sorcerer's Stone is capable of infinitely healing people and restoring them to the prime of their youth. Instead of defending the status quo, Harry denounces the previous holders of the stone as more evil than Voldemort for hoarding magical healthcare, opens a free hospital, and sends his allies out to bring back the sick and elderly for free healing.
It's a low bar and I might be memory holing something problematic, but Methods of Rationality is better than the source material.
Hermione is turned into a mindless obedient waifu while technically dead
:yea:
which is a big part of Big Yud’s fetish for mind control, as he often does in real life with drugging and “you only exist as a figment of my imagination” mantras whispered to drugged guests in his cult compounds.
btw :my-hero: said that to Grimes almost verbatim while they were still dating. He just added that his imagination made up the perfect woman so she somehow deluded herself into believing that creepy sexpest shit was a compliment
