I’m torn. Both Galadriel and Sauron say the other is a threat to Middle-earth. One has to be wrong, so whom am I to trust? Should I trust the Dark Lord who attempted to topple the White City of Gondor, dominate all life, and attempt to stay in power for eternity? Or do I trust the Elf Queen representing the coalition of Men and Elves who defeated Sauron when he tried to enslave the Free Peoples… but could maybe do more meet-and-greets?
Bourgeois? That sounds like communist talk. Are you some kind of tankie?
No, but would’ve loved when Frodo got rid of Sam, if Sam has said “See the violence inherent in the system! Help, I’m being repressed!” 😄
