  • I completely understand you, even as a fan. Tolkien style of fantasy aged like milk. It's contribution to the genre and literature as a whole is impossible to measure, but it's just not fun anymore if you never saw it before. The movies aged a little better, but still not great. Anyone who says otherwise has either seen his work a very long time ago, or is looking at it with nostalgia glasses. Noone in 2025 could get through all the goofy-ass singing, lack of any shades of gray, unrealistic battles, and tree branch backstories without rolling their eyes once or twice. It really requires the viewer to not treat it too seriously, something like orginal Star Wars Trilogy.

  • It has nothing to do with hate. Trump is a pathetic parasite without a trace of backbone. He would work with a person who shat in his McDonald's if he had something to gain from it (e.g JD Vance). Its just that he happens to be a russian asset.

  • That's a fascist move all in itself, in a way. Also, if anything can actually spark a revolution these days, it's that. I don't think today's people would give a single fuck if you started putting them in camps, but I would bet my butthole they would riot if you took away their social media. It's basically an entire identity of two whole generations.

  • We will not. Lemmy is far too inaccessible for an average user. I would say multiple servers would throw them off, but they won't get that far. They will give up the moment they see there is no "Lemmy" on google play, but multiple launchers you can use.

  • Nicely put. I would just add that while China is indeed a lesser evil at the moment, so was the USA once. Being dependant on anyone WILL come back and bite the Union in the ass every single time. Might take 10 years, might take a 100, but it will. I would advise extreeme caution.

  • That is a bit too optimistic, though only by a little. China is still an immoral authoritarian state, and the EU should definetly not overdo any possible deals with them, as not to get dependant on yet another bully. The cheeto man may still straight up team up with his russian overlords and try to screw us in the butts. However, if we play the cards right, stay united, and keep russian-funded politicians away from our parliments, we just might come up on top.
