I'm a reader that likes to check for deeper meanings in literature and media, and the thing I got from the books was the world building aspect (far more extensive than you'd usually find in fantasy) and the meaning (and power) of friendship, both at its best and worst. The books clearly illustrate people at their best and people at their worst and the consequences of that choice for each. If someone wanted to make a claim based on the better and worse nature of people in general, that would have been a much better point to start of with if you wanted to find parallels to other stories or looking for unstated truths.

You are already seeing modern works by people from a certain political affiliation getting their books pulled, just like you see show pitches being rejected out of hand for not "ticking the right boxes". They only tolerate (some) classic works because it's useful to them. Once its usefulness runs out, they will find a "too much of a problematic nature" that requires total destruction of it, I'm sure. They care for nothing and value nothing, other than use it to gain more personal power. They have no need for dead wood/weight, because it doesn't contribute to their thirst and pursuit of power; and having a vacuum within culture is a perfect opportunity to populate it with the "right kind" of literature or media to create a "power base". Hence, why they go after popular franchises, rather than create popular franchises. For them, to have anything exist outside of their direct control is a personal affront to them, and a cultural and commercial threat to their 'success'. :/

Tolkien's intended meaning of the Stewardship and Denethor is obvious, given the man's unusual anarchist/monarchist political ideals. Denethor and the Stewardship are the unworthy ruler, who feels entitled to the position and demands others to follow him. Aragorn and the Kingdom are the worthy monarch, who does not desire to rule at all but is followed by others regardless. It really is simply just that.

It doesn't matter how clear and absolute a statement is made. There will always be an academic of little understanding around to make it mean something else. Take for instance, and I'm sure JSG will get to this as it's in another presentation, the Valar and how they present as male and female on Middle Earth. Tolkein states that a mortal body is like clothes to them. They pick out the body to best match their temper, male or female. The LGBTQIABABupdownstart people took that to mean that Tolkein was positing the idea that a body doesn't determine gender. They took his analogy to explain the relationship between Valar and mortal bodies and extended it to a mortal's spirit and their body. All because Tolkein couldn't imagine that 70 years later people would assert that there are infinite manners of sexual identity. Words are nothing more than a riddle that requires them to think for a solution. To make them mean what they wish it to mean.

Ironically those pro-trans people are anti-feminist. As someone said recently, I think it was either Think Before You Sleep or Mr. Obvious, but gendering actions is exactly what the feminists tried to break down for for a long time. The de-gendering of clothing, of sports, of toys, the desire to abolish "girls only/boys only" toy sections etc was an attempt to show "men and women are equal and can enjoy whatever they want". Now, the transgender ideologues are saying "no, no, only girls do x, only boys do y". This reinforces gender roles and ultimately undermines the original platform women had. Now, I think both sides of the debate is stupid, as I support gender roles and oppose transgenderism. But it is funny to watch the left eat themselves. It's not just confined to sports competitions.

The old English word for female human is *"wīfmann",* and you can see the *"wīf"* noun surviving in the modern word *"wife".* The word *"human"* is borrowed from Latin *"humanus"* (from "hūmus" meaning earth or dirt) but it stuck in English because ends in -man.

It always falls short as easily falsifiable, impossible to reproduce, riddled with fallacies and logical misconstructions, or ultimately redundant, boring, uninspired, and with no rescuable insights. - BUT the most incriminating aspect of all: *they always use the same tone of voice* .

Her introduction is the only important part. She prefaces the discussion by asserting that a written work *cannot* have a concrete meaning, not that Tolkien's meaning cannot be understood. Essentially, what she said right off the bat is that what Tolkien meant is irrelevant, and all that matters is subjective interpretation of what the work means, specifically, that her perspective is right simply because it's how she perceives it. It's literally Marxist dogma, in particular Critical Theory. The point is to undermine the existence of truth and meaning, assert that all truth and meaning is subjective, and control what that subjective perspective is. It's the belief that truth is dictated by power and majority perspective, rather than than the truth being, well, the truth. In short, in conclusion, this word salad is subversive nonsense.
