Ten Obvious Signs Of White Supremacy In 'The Lord of the Rings'
Entertainment · Jul 24, 2024 · BabylonBee.com

The Lord Of The Rings by J.R.R. Tolkien is a story of epic high fantasy set in Middle-earth that has been beloved by many around the world - many WHITE SUPREMACISTS, that is. Here are just ten reasons why this fantasy is not innocent fun, but is actually a white supremacy tome disguised as literature:

  1. There are 9 members of the Fellowship, yet not a single elf or hobbit of color: Shameful.

  2. Middle-earth is absolutely filled with wizards in robes: Just like the KKK.

  3. Speaking of wizards, the main wizard is Gandalf The White: Be a little less obvious, Tolkien.

  4. The poor, disenfranchised creatures known as "orcs" are portrayed as evil: Tolkien really missed the boat in not showing why their violent war against white supremacy is justified.

  5. The evil land of Mordor is known as the Black Land, which is behind the Black Gate: The bigotry is overwhelming.

  6. The White Tree of Gondor is a symbol of goodness: Clearly a sign that according to Tolkien, the good guys are the white guys. Disgusting.

  7. Actually, everything in the free city of Minas Tirith is white: It is located by the White Mountains, seven levels of the city are surrounded by white walls, and it is built higher and higher until it finally reaches the highest point of the city, which is the White Tower. What more evidence could you need?

  8. Saruman, who is depicted as a traitorous bad wizard, quits wearing his white robe: Gandalf even tells Saruman, "I liked white better." It's been right in front of us this whole time.

  9. The Easterlings and Haradrim are foreigners who just so happen to ally with the evil Lord Sauron: Will the xenophobia never end?

  10. Finally, the whole story is praising white people for stealing and destroying the Ring of Power forged in the Black Land: REEEEE!!!!

Well, there you have it. These are just ten of the reasons that The Lord of the Rings is a clear textbook on white supremacy. Until next time — read better books, and don't be white.
