I just saw one ultra, ultra cringe thing on Twitter, and holy shite that’s the best you can come up with? Outright plagiarism of probably the second most famous story in the Bible where it nearly made me spit out my drink.
"Let my people go"?
Is that what you are calling outright plagiarism?
If so that's weak, and pretty silly to get so upset about.

Really wish they would have released it last weekend. Oh well I’ll watch it at some point in the next few days.

It comes from the incredibly racist accusation that orcs somehow represent black people. So to correct their own racist fantasy they’re trying to make orcs relatable and well intentioned. These people are insane, this show is an abomination.

Probably the most famous spoken quote in the Bible? It is cheesy as all frick and you can tell that the idiot writers were proud of that one.
Come on man, it's Tolkien. Think of how much the Bible inspired his story/themes, especially the earlier ages. This show could be hated on for a ton of stuff, but drawing from the Bible shouldn't be one of them. If anything, that's one of the few things that was actually an ode to Tolkien.

As usual you allege the exact opposite of reality.

A quick google search will produce dozens and dozens of articles saying this and all coming from a certain type which happens to align exactly with the people who made this show.

In mad kings world everyone that shares one characteristic with someone else shares all their opinions and values.
If you and Madking are both white males yall automatically agree on everything else.
Its a standard hasty generalization fallacy.
It makes it easier for dumb people to make sense of the world.

That’s a lot of projection and irony. When someone calls those things racist, insane and false it doesn’t mean they agree with it, it means the exact opposite you lowlife scumbag.
