Tolkien was making the traditionalist critique of capitalism before it was cool. Tory anarchist crypto-feudalism coming from an Anglo of all people, shocking. Maybe it's because he was Catholic

I didn't even realize this but you're right, that one letter Tolkien write back to some Nazi explaining he wasn't an anti-semite is 100% the reason his threads draw in a bunch of retarded polacks. Which is fucking bizarre because it was such a mild refusal of Nazism, why would any normal person to go such lengths to lie about and try to malign a figure they've never met, that is long dead, and to do so on an anonymous Mongolian basketweaving e-consortium of all places?

The sad thing is if they were just slightly less brain damaged they'd realize there's a lot in Tolkien sympathetic to their general direction.

Tolkien is one of my favourite people.
His contribution to literature was unique.

I've read LotR 4 or 5 times, but I re-read the Silmarillion every year, and I think it's getting close to my 20th read on that one.
