Ok I know everyone hated Umbridge, but I want to know who you hated more. Which one did you want dead more Voldemore or Umbridge? Post a comment to let me know.
I personally wanted Umbridge dead more than Voldemort.

Umbridge, because her form of evil was more dangerous, in a way.
With Voldemort, it was easy enough for most people to go against, because it is (to most people) obvious that subjugating, torturing and killing an entire subset of humanity is wrong. He made his motives quite clear.
But the leaders that tend to be able to gain more power in the real world (usually) are those like Umbridge, who systematically oppress people. There may still be torture and murder, but these aspects of government control are kept more secret and under wraps. We don't learn about them until a lot of horribleness has happened.
Plus, Umbridge and her cronies in the Ministry of Magic were more successful in oppressing people than Voldemort and his followers were. Perhaps Voldemort was responsible for more deaths, but Umbridge was responsible for more widespread oppression.

Yeah..I wanted Umbridge dead more too. She was so evil and omg the whole time during Order of the Phoenix I literally wanted to jump in the book and kick her ass! She was so annoying!!
i read this thing once and i hate that i can't remember where it was from and who said it- but it said something like:
Voldemort is the far off enemy that is in the bigger picture; it's obligatory and duty to hate him as he kills numbers and numbers of people
But Umbridge is the enemy that we see everyday- the cruel teacher, the unfair employee, the power-hungry boss and the PERSONAL enemy. The one that the the things she does has a direct and personal attack on you.
that's why people hate the umbridge type more deeply- because we all have variations of umbridge in our real lives.
She's the person who is so unjust and unfair and yet not 'evil' per say and so we can't do anything about it.

Definitely Umbridge.For Voldemort,torturing and killing was something he felt was necessary to obtain power which was his ultimate objective.He neither liked nor disliked it.It was just another thing he had to do to fulfill his ambitions.Umbridge however,relished the act itself.She was a liar and a hypocrite and I cannot decribe in words how much I detest that woman.
Umbridge... Oh that woman! She reminds me of my chemistry teacher. I hate them both!
THIS CONTAINS A SPOILERRRR!
I definitely hate Professor Umbridge more. With Voldemort, you can eventually watch the movies and laugh at how ugly he looks and how you know he will eventually get defeated. With Professor Umbridge…the pink….that laugh….the way she treats people…her ways of torturing people (specifically Harry in "detention")….her ways of keeping secrets from the entire wizarding world
Ugh! Creepy!
