This is an attempt at viral marketing, no doubt planned by Amazon's crisis management department. They've been in overdrive with the propaganda ever since the first Rings of Power trailers received critically bad reception.
Things like this are always interesting because they allow you to gauge the reach of corporate propaganda by observing which segments of society start uncritically parroting this shit.
Amazon's reach is much further than HBO's. HBO can astroturf certain forums to absurd levels for House of the Dragon, and they can make a handful of lackluster memes, but not much else. Amazon successfully controls a handful of media outlets and astroturfs the vast majority of reddit. They can also bribe youtubers, some of whom admit to getting vacations and goody-bags for positive Rings of Power coverage.
Google, though, is the giant. Their propaganda has nearly the same reach as that of the federal government. Their narratives show up in the same places at the same time, and that makes me think they are conjoined.

Think of it as a partnership. The Federal government gets the power of Google, and Google gets to be friends with people who shoot civilians for a living.
Everybody's a winner! Well, except the population, but I think it's safe to say by this point that we're really not concerned about them at all.
The Lord Of The Rings and associated novels were one of the few remaining great bodies of work that could still be said to belong to the English in any meaningful sense. Christopher Tolkien understood this, which is why it was only once he died that his father's works were whored out to whichever multi billion dollar international corporation would pay the most money for the privilege of turning them into another bucket of brown sludge in the ocean of global mass media.
Riddle me this: If a show can go from being seen by hundreds of millions, to being seen by one million... And you blame racism... And racism is evil... Does that imply that over 99% of the population is evil according to your worldview?
To me, if your logic requires 99% of the population to be actively malicious and evil in order to make sense... You're probably malicious and evil, Bezos.
Look, this probably didn't come directly from Shorty J, he's too busy browsing manletdating.com and trying to copy Papa Elon's notes for the Space 101 final exam.
Bf5 is probably a mastetpiece compared to bf2042 lol. But ive ignore BF since BF1. I tried bf2042 and its trash and cringey. Why the hell would russia, a country that is allegedly bigoted, conscript expats? Especially non binary black woman? Lol.
It is beyond tiresome at this point. Fuck these corporations. I'd almost be in favor of taxing them into the ground if the government weren't even worse.
If they can convince you it's no big deal that white people are being replaced in our own stories, they can convince you it's no big deal white people are being replaced in our own countries, in real life. Have some self respect. It's propaganda meant to condition you to the hell world they're creating.
You are correct, that in the end it doesn't matter what people think or say. It only matters what's true. If you align with truth, then you're fine. If you don't, you'll be judged harshly, and not by me.

"Don't be evil."
lol
They ditched that shit in 2018...
It shows.
What they are doing is deflection, they are openly trying to suppress all criticism by trying to bash it as illegitimate.
All this does is piss people off as this is clearly being done to cater to extremists.

No, he didn't. He created a world that was, by definition, mono-cultural; the English culture.
This shit makes me miss the "LotR is wacist" whining. "Yes."

This gives so much BF5 vibes.

I miss the memetic black female Nazis from COD, nowadays they won't anyone play as any German at all after that one stupid video.
What vid?
"Stop normalizing Nazis"

Its ironic because 2 episodes in, 80% of the plot seems to revolve around how racist everyone in middle earth is
