So this is the plan. Haters of this show WILL be called racists and homophobes!


Judging by the spineless bigots and racist crybabies here, yes!

Tolkien wasn't racist, repelled nazi advances towards him and even wrote about non-white entities.

Get. over. it.

I see we're in for the long haul over here.

Even if the show is just objectively shit?

Especially if the show is objectively shit.

In fact, if the show was really good people would likely forgive questionable casting decisions. Most people into sci-fi/fantasy never had trouble with non-white actors from other movies/genres (like Sgt. Apone from Aliens, Parker from Alien, Winston from Ghostbusters, Blade from...Blade, Childs and Nauls from The Thing, and so on).

I'm already an enemy of the state after Biden's 09/01/2022 speech, so Amazon is behind the curve.
