The Lord of the Rings is a perennially relevant tale of old school good versus evil. It has clear moral boundaries. It has true heroes who are prepared to fight for righteousness. There are no transgender characters. Is there any reason at all for the Left to like anything about The Lord of the Rings?

“So why has the political Left condemned The Lord of the Rings? It should be plainly obvious now: because The Lord of the Rings paints them exactly how they truly are. The story perfectly illustrates their ugliness, inside and out. They represent evil in its darkest form. Thus, their politicization of the saga is in fact a testament to the objective and perennial evil which they now represent. The name “Satan” comes from the ancient Hebrew word Shaytan, which literally means the “adversary” — and it is Sauron who embodies this archaic, eldritch theme. The Left sees themselves in Saruman, the orcs, and the Haradrim.
There is simply no way in which they can somehow interpret the story to see themselves in the knightly spirit of the Fellowship or the genuine brotherly love between Frodo and Samwise.
Given that there is simply no way to deny the obvious parallels other than to attempt to poison the well and flee, disparaging the story in its entirety as “racist” or something of the sort, it begs the final question, which is no less important: How did we get to a point where absolute evil has been given a legitimate platform in today’s politics? As I ponder this, I am reminded of our heroes who are being held in solitary confinement at this moment, guarded … on the orders of traitors while conservacucks wash their hands of it, and I remind myself that we are not the bad guys of this story. Our movement soon will be vindicated.”
One must hope so. But our plight is much worse that the world depicted in The Lord of the Rings. There is no army to fight, there are few heroes, and the evil ones have every resource. We will need a miracle, as each day things get worse and the forces of Sauron grow stronger and deadlier.
