She said something. She said that it was the way Reg was treated that made her stop and think. Seeing how he was 'thrown away' made her realise that even people like her weren't safe. I told her to think bigger, that it wasn't just Voldemort or his 'Council' that created a tiered society. That it was already buggered up long before that, that it's the idea that a pureblood or a magical person can be worth more than another is what gave rise to a society where Voldemort could hold power.
I didn't want to put it too baldly or press too hard. Maybe she'll think about it.
And I dunno if it was clever or not but maybe she'll think about how perfect he wasn't.
