heyyy everyone

I've got a little question which has seriously confused me😕
basically you know in the 5th book when nobody believes Harry about the return of Voldermort...
why can't Harry just extract his thoughts and put them into a pensieve for the ministry of magic to see?
that way nobody could doubt Voldies return right? or wrong?

can someone please try to answer and put my poor brain at ease lol thanks

Well as we saw in HBP memories can be modified (albeit Slughorn didn't do a good job, but we can assume that it can be done seemlessly), so the ministry may not have trusted a memory from Harry Potter.

However, I do think that Fudge really did believe that Voldermort's return but he didn't want to admit it to himself far less for the world, so he did everything in his power to discredit Harry.

This is just my take on it. Hope it makes enough sense to put your mind at ease

well, harry could have done that...but as we see, no one would believe him, besides Ron and Hermione. and yeah, fudge didn't want to lose his position as minister, and if he said that Voldemort is really back, then the wizarding world would get rid of him(which they did) and get a new minister, preferably Dumbledore or as we know, Scrimgeour
