In Tolkien stories, all the good guys are liberals. Saruman and his uruk-hai are perhaps the most leftist things there are in those stories. Elves are moderate conservatives with some questionable histories.

I hope everyone here appreciates what a special moment this is. This has potential to be the most downvoted comment on Lemmy.

It's a bit sad for Lemmy if 76 downvotes gets you to such a status. But mixing an interpretation of Tolkien with an anti-left message might indeed be one of the best ways to get there.

Don't worry, it's 76 and counting.

It's actually 88 total downvotes for a net score of -76 lol
