The dwarves were characterized as selfish and greedy when it came to matters of the Arkenstone and their wealth.

Regarding LOTR I understand the part about LOTR mythology being a mythology. But the part about books just being books, I grew up with Harry Potter and read it in middle school and started reading Tolkien last year before the pandemic, (I didn’t know it was anti demerit until people started talking about it on the internet. There wasn’t a lot of Jewish people in my life back when I read the books so I didn’t understand.

I’m not trying to pick fights it’s a genuine question and I want to know. Jewish people can contribute in the comments if you want. I value opinions like yours especially on this topic.

I wasn’t referring to anti-trans rhetoric when it came to Tolkien, I was talking about Rowling being a transphobe despite the fact that it’s 2023 and she’s still standing by the idea that trans peoples identities aren’t valid.
