Dwarves venerate, not worship their ancestors. And elves named their weapons too, probably more often than men
men: We learned it by watching you!
Olcrist the Goblin-cleaver and Glamdring the Foe-hammer!
Hobbies: beer, weed and vibing
I wish I was a Hobbit.
Be the change you want to see, my dude.
Where are we starting the commune at? I’m down for this. Return to Shire.
And dwarves don’t love gold?
And Elves don’t love jewelry or name weapons?
Hobbits with no class structure?It appears to be a ideal commune without class structure when you are only showing the heirs of the most powerful class leaders with the only working class hobbit being subservient to the richest.
Only recently I’ve been made aware that most people who haven’t read the books don’t know especially Merry and Pippin are actually pretty big shots.
Yeah isn’t Merry like heir to a fairly big chunk of the Shire?
Everything east of the Brandywine if I’m not mistaken. Though technically Buckland is not part of the Shire at the time of the lotr events.
The Hobbits absolutely do have a class system
Those no-good Sackville-Baggins… always stealing the silver…
I recently read this article which, sadly, totally goes against the meme.
That was a fascinating read, thank you for sharing! The fact that Tolkien’s world can be analyzed to this degree and still make sense is absolutely mind boggling to me.

That article was a very good read.
the so-called political compass as a concept is stupid, but taking it at face value, how are dwarves economically on the left? they work to death in mines and love gold.
Are the arrows supposed to carry meaning? Label your axis, kids!
also the hobbit films sucked.

the book character’s fault or the actors
Yeah that’s pretty much it
Subaltern is a great word.
