Is Gilderoy Lockhart in Harry Potter (Chamber of Secrets) informed or inspired by real life Scientology "founder" L Ron Hubbard?

I believe the general consensus is that he's a horrible person for erasing the minds of dozens of people after stealing their stories.

I'm not sure if I remember that part. A jerk move, but it doesn't sound as bad as, say, some of Snape's worst actions he committed in the name of his own indulging sentiments.

K wat did Snape actually do that was straight-up evil, ever? Was he legit a non-double-crossing DeathEater?

I didn't say straight-up evil, I just said he'd be higher on the dick scale.
