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.

Based

I have mixed views on the homosexual community so I can't really say

Skinny legend

i think you troll hard right to upset the resident chapos, but i think youve spent enough time on pol to actually believe some of the things you post (but not everything).

ditto but he believes most if not all of it.

This. But also I really like him, despite the possibly quite sincere racism.

Thanks I hate it.

Ewww imagine being anti-mayocide even for the sake of accelerationism and wanting people of various bckgrounds to get along. Very un-dramatic of you, poser.

Also black people are that way because melanin is just chad-fuel

Your better than collectijism at least

That's a low bar

I know but 🤷‍♂️

Pretty funny dude, occasional schizo. Trappy loved you btw.

The necessary foil to the libtard menace of pizzashill/watermark

While centrism is the only ideology that isn’t forged in mental illness, without the far ends of the spectrum there is no center. For that reason, we need you brother 👨‍❤️‍💋‍👨

I like you

Your smugness and self satisfied belief that you are actually “owning le libtards” disgusts me to the core of my being. The idea that you could in some way truly believe yourself superior to any form of life on this planet fills me with glowering rage. I detest you and everything you stand for.

love ya bae

I have no clue who you are. so probably you're some kind of a narcissist.

You are one of my favourite posters these days.

Too much unironic rightoid shilling but sometimes you make a comment that is funny.

You're a total faggot, but a tolerable and sometimes based one

My opinion is that you belong here. Take that as you will

I find you sometimes sincere, often insincere, always post-ironic, and never otherwise.
