Tolkien didn't have a message, but I fixed it for you as best as can be done.

Trying to interject racism into this discussion is a strawman argument. Because you think that any defense of Tolkien means someone must be a racist? It’s a self-reenforcing position where either you agree with race swapping Elves s and hobits, or you’re a racist. That is the height of intellectual dishonesty.

You have no argument that’s not anchored in a foundation of bad faith.

He can’t conversate respectfully like a normal human so he has to immediately grab for the most extremist framing of his perceived opponent to try and generate a pile on from a friendly crowd on a friendly board.

It’s the height of intellectual midgetry.

Lol. Says the guy using "conservate" in a sentence and labeling people as Nazis and fascists. You're guilty of everything you accuse others of being and doing.

My man you’re still floundering on how to differentiate basic storytelling definitions, at this point I’m just having a bit of fun running up the score..

I mean despite his asperger-like obsession with calling everything and everyone commies, you won’t actually find me going “well actually, the Marxist-Leninist Communists were pretty justified cause..”

Can’t really say the same with OLM and Nazis now can we?

So no, not really

I'm not in here trying to label people as commies, Nazis, fascists, and racists. All of that sort of discourse is worn out and fricking dumb. All of you look like asshats.

Recap -

Sammy asked how it changes the narrative if the dwarves are black.

It's a nonsensical question. There are no dwarves of color. Period.

Carry on all you want about 'proper storytelling definitions' but they're all moot.

Why?

Because Tolkien created the world which he wanted. For the reasons he wanted.

There is no ' yeah, but what if... '. It simply doesn't exist.

I’m glad to see you just out and out making excuses for the Nazis lol

It’s people like you and not me that led to their rise. You’re a fricking communist who would shoot anyone in the head that didn’t agree with you if you knew you could get away with it. Go frick yourself, even if that will add another check to your shitty bingo card. Scumbag.

At least we finally have some honesty out of you. You are literally the modern equivalent of the 1930’s German far right conservative that was brainwashed into thinking they needed to embrace authoritarianism to fight a phantom threat.

---

No I was for the free market. Wouldn’t have voted for either, but I understand why the people who did it voted for that. It was only 30%, but that was enough.

quote:

It was never a fear buddy, the communist party of Germany in the 30’s was a niche movement. A movement shunned by the Socialist party, the conservatives, and the majority of Germany. But Hitler didn’t rise out of realistic fears, he rose out of appeals to emotion about returning Germany to greatness via catastrophizing and promising to dispel the threat of his enemies and exaggerating social cleavages and prejudicial boogiemen and using fear of them as a justification for authoritarian actions.

And the irony of you latching onto someone like Tolkien is rather ironic. Considering he would take one look at that post and absolutely despise you and all your being for that Nazi defense. Yet somehow in your warped brain you’ve convinced yourself your seething hatreds are actually reflected in his work, when his work was anything but

Wow, just full fledged communism here. Have you told your parents you’re a communist? I’ve told my parents I’m a libertarian and they’re fine with it. I mean my God, just swallowing Marx’s load in his Manisfesto. You are a fricking disgrace for being a communist, and if your father knew who you actually are, he would wish he instead shot you on your mother’s tits. An open communist. What a disgrace you are. You are fricking scum. Wear a paper bag over your head, you genocidal lunatic. Go tell your dad who you are. You are one step above a pedophile.

So you believe that Southeastern and CP3LSU are Nazis and/or fascists? I take it you also believe they are Confederate racists. Is this an accurate summation?

You won’t denounce communism and use all their talking points and vernacular. Here’s my position: frick Nazis and may every Nazi go kill themselves. Now go say the same thing about communists.

Oh you’re not going to say that because you’re an evil, filthy commie. Sorry, communists are also the archenemy of capitalists and really decent people in general. Go take a long walk off a short pier, you Stalinist cocksucker.
