hmnut7 06/01/25 3:00:56 PM #8:	A vote for Aragorn is a vote for Trump/MAGA. As a man once said "What are Aragon's tax policies?" Pointing out that just because he's a good man, doesn't mean he'd be a good king dealing with all the everyday bullshit and political backstabbing. We've seen it, a good man could save the people of America from utter doom, if on Election Day the price of eggs is $0.05 more expensive than before, Americans will vote for Sauron rather than Aragon. Aragon would just be a short break from Trump, and I'd still be poor. Give me that money. Num num num. --- Starfire: "They are too numerous to fight. What shall we do?" Robin: "Fight anyway!"

darkknight109 06/04/25 11:04:04 AM #19:	We have literally zero evidence of Aragorn's competency as an administrator, so this is a pretty easy choice. Also, the US chose to have Trump as their leader, so they get to deal with the consequences of that decision. I'm not about to save them from it; if anything, I hope it goes even worse in the hopes that at least some of the country learns why they shouldn't vote shitheads into office. --- Kill 1 man: You are a murderer.

Yes, and even Tolkien, who seemed to love royalty, wrote a story about how Sauron was able to manipulate and corrupt it, which led to the downfall of Numenor. Tolkien was also going to write a sequel to LOTR that was about how as Aragorn aged/died, Sauron/Morgoth-worshiping cultists started showing up and everything started going to hell.
