Yes. Much more of a "Tolkien is a reflection of unfortunate racist and colonialist attitudes in 20th century British culture" guy than a "Tolkien was smuggling his white supremacist agenda by subtly inserting it into children's literature" guy bsky.app/profile/grey...
No literature escapes its culture. Scripture, politics, philosophy all have a taint that we can welcome as an opportunity for reflection—on the progress of humanity and our own failings that will only become more clear in time.

Again, going in circles, but Trump ****literally**** does not understand how the American government works. He has ****never**** understood it. He was, until this administration, protected from his own stupidity but now there is no longer anyone at the helm. It’s ***actual*** anarchic governance.
