Evidently the author or producer wants LOTR to be more diverse.

I've never seen it, but still that seems like an odd thing to be concerned about.

I am afraid I am going to reduce the diversity of their audience by not watching it. Just nobody mention it to them as I don't want to violate their safe space.

Man they’re just openly being racist. It’s a political way of saying, “we need fewer white people.”

At some point white people are gonna get sick of this forced diversity BS.

The Communist Chinese do it with ethnic minorities. The Soviets did it for 69 years.

It will only stop if we stop it.

South Park is going to have fun with this. They get to do a prequel.

Will there be any massively overweight people, like over 500 pounds? What about very elderly people in wheel chairs? Any people from Mongolia, Afghanistan, IsIS, etc?
Where does it end?

Three cheers and hearty first and second breakfast'es for the Blobbits, Hobbasians, Mexilatinobbits and the Maoriobbits! This is surely what the series has been missing!

Absolutely. What few know is many many years ago people (of all sorts of different genders) came from New Zealand to Middle Earth because they had open borders hence the Maori representation which I think is a wonderful addition to the story and the world that J. R. R. Tolkien created.

They only do this for white movies or shows. Now the wonder years is being remade with a black cast.

Are they going to remake thr Cosby show with a white cast?

The stupidity of the LOTR updated with wokeness added should be pretty obvious.

While yes it is a mythical, fantasy story. It is obviously meant to be a European geographical setting in and around the 13th or 14th century.

There were not asians or blacks living in those regions it is just stupid and makes it harder to get into the story because of it.

That's why the Comanche tribe was so successful. They had black Comanches, Asian Comanches, and even Maori Comanches. Hell, all those African tribes are diverse too. They totally have members that are non-black non-africans. Leftists are fricking retards. Tribes are subsets of races.

Fun fact: the islands of the south Pacific were first discovered and settled by red-headed people from modern Peru, not the Maori or Pacific Islanders.

Amazon will ruin this. Just have to accept it. Just like Disney did with star wars. It's almost seems like a mission of theirs at this point.
