In The Lord of the Rings, J. R. R. Tolkien drew upon the language and themes found in the old Medieval hero-tales in order to construct a kind of new mythology. The brilliance of Tolkien was in his departure from the Pagan modes of conduct and morality of these old tales, his creation of a syncretistic fusion between Christian thought and Pagan language, and so his work achieved a deep resonance with all who read it.

We find this passage at the conclusion of The Return of the King:

The Dark Lord was suddenly aware of him, and his Eye piercing all shadows looked across the plain to the door that he had made; and the magnitude of his own folly was revealed to him in a blinding flash, and all the devices of his enemies were at last laid bare.

Adversaries in the stories that Tolkien drew upon, Grendel, Mordred and the like, often served as obstacles that the heroes could overcome through feats of strength and cunning. Sauron is not like them. When Sauron is defeated, it is not because Aragorn is stronger than him or because Gandalf is wiser. They are not. It is only that his hubris was so great that it never occured to him that anyone would want to destroy the thing he held so dear. It is not until the final few seconds of his existence that he realises his mistake.

I think that I Am Jazz displays a similar moment. In the pictured scene, Jazz's journey to what he believes is womanhood is almost complete. He is resting after surgery, a triumphant smile on his face, his rotting groin held together by a labyrinthine patchwork of stitches and grafts. But as Eru Ilúvatar nudged Gollum over the Crack of Doom into the fires beneath, so too does the God of our world intervene in this.

Pop!

In a second, the follies of men are undone and Jazz's crotch explodes, a meaty froth of blood and pus pouring out of the hole where his penis used to be.

In that moment of blind panic and terror, Jazz is Sauron. All triumph and victory is gone. Only the Void remains.

And no fucks were given.

I remember seeing this one tweet about how a user suggested to Erika to have a "mental breakdown" on June 20th, and Erika said yes.

Even so the dude obviously has mental issues. Nobody makes jokes and calls themselves the anti Christ as they're being arrested by police.

I unironically feel kinda bad for this bad guy, I hope he's safe and gets help.

What did he do that makes him bad? I always thought of him as just a funny YouTube personality who unfortunately had some mental health issues.

This shit has been going on for years, he sent snaps to fans begging them to call the cops because he had a gun to his temple back in '16

i never heard about this, link?

I'll try to look, but I can definitely be mustaken that it was another suicidal black youtuber

yeah, I’m not sure if it’s Etika - last I checked he doesn’t actually have Snapchat (was flirting with the idea around last year) and only recently got Instagram along with his other socials

I tried looking really hard on Scarce's channel because that is where I remember it from, couldn't find shit, might be a retard, still genuinly hope Etika is alright

He's probably dead if you ask me

For real. His video uploaded at exactly midnight which seems like a scheduled time.

This is the same guy referred to in this post right?

Damn! It feels like being in an episode of Blackmirror with (possible) real life suicide unfolding on internet.

Yep same guy. It totally does feel like a black mirror episode lol.

Black mirror is the Harry Potter of tv and anyone who compares it to real life is retarded.

There have already been several people livestreaming their suicides on the internet.

Yeah dude's dead as fuck.

Me gone, a nigga dead!😭😭😭
