The Lord Of The Rings is what we call an archetypal story. It is an interpretation of one of the oldest and most ancient archetypal narratives known to mankind. It is, in many ways, a sacred text. It takes a wise and awakened mind to understand and appreciate the manuscript and its contents. The day friendship and magic and faith become a laughing matter to you, is probably the day you lose your inner child. Yes, you've killed and buried a pure and innocent part of you and given up on the sanctity of life. It's not your spite-filled tongue or your inquisitive complainy-man attitude that is going to deliver this world from that very chaos you complain about, but knighthood and simple, godly virtues. The first thing I will teach my children is the virtue of friendship, companionship, empathy, selflessness. A man without friends is a traitor in the making. And yet this is the image of the quintessential "modern-man", whose heart is hard as stone and open to all vileness against its enemies, but muscles weak and bones too frail to even act out their own degeneracy. <iframe src="https://archive.org/embed/nick-fuentes-hates-lord-of-the-rings" width="560" height="384" frameborder="0" webkitallowfullscreen="true" mozallowfullscreen="true" allowfullscreen></iframe> George Martin is an incredible writer as well, and Game of Thrones is a modern literature "step-up" from the abstractions of classical fiction and fantasy. If you understand the intricacies of writing, then you will also understand that his writing style revolutionised reading comprehension and general tightness and weight of how much info can be communicated in a paragraph. George Martin is an immense writing talent, especially technically. Perhaps not as divinely connected with the spiritual realms, but his writing technique is extraordinary. It's a very, very big disservice to his acumen and narrative depth to assume it's as simple as making incest cool. In no way do I agree with haters of either author. Writing is the single most sacred and difficult skill to master and, over millennia, the primary form of channeling used by great prophets and wisemen to transfer divinity into material for the masses.
