I know that the rules in the sidebar says No Politics, but this is specifically relevant.
Does anyone have the Italian version they reference with the tone-setting forward? I'd be interested in seeing it.
I think the article’s connection to some of the aspects of the source material is relevant as well. As long as the conversation stays civil, I don’t see a problem with its inclusion in this community.
Absolutely, it's worth talking about since it's not a new phenomena with Tolkien's work. We should be mindful of these kinds of interpretations and be clear about how we, as a community, respond.
