I’m not sure if it’s fake or not. I can’t find any indication that it is. But I can’t find many details corroborating the story either.
It’s just a “10 year old girl”. No indication of what city she’s from or other details.
Even if it is true… so what? It’s a tragedy but it’s a very rare tragedy. The media and left act like this is PROOF that RvW shouldn’t be overturned.
What they are doing is taking advantage of the availability heuristic. Highlight the very rare rape case in a 10 year old and the normies think it happens more often than it does.
There was no human sacrifice in the Americas until the Conquistadors came along! /s
Also: the worst massacres and atrocities in history were perpetuated by the Mongols. Genghis and his descendants were not what we call “Europeans”.
It’s right there in the Bible. Genesis 1:8 “And God created man and saw that this was good. Then God created Capitalism so as to exploit man’s labor. But man was alone so God created wahmyn so they could serve as 2nd class laborers and womb factories.”
It’s there. Just read your Bible.
And ye child were borne and Lord VonThundershaft doth nameth hym Woodbert, after his great grandfather. But lo, thine hoe cried out, “Didst thou assume theys gender?”
Cuthbert slappeth his owne forehead, distraught. “What manner of bewitched whore did I bed? She may be touched in the head. Though she may be mine son's mother, truly I can no longer bear the presence of lady Karen of SanFran Sisco.”
The hobbit and lotr were the only books from middle earth lore published in his lifetime.
His son Christopher gathered and curated his notes and published The Silmarillion after Tolkien passed. Lots of other stories have been published based on JRRs notes.
I’m not going to address the entire article. Just the point that Galadriel was made into some warrior maiden since the writers think that the only power one can have is strength.
Tolkien’s work had many (Elven) women in it. They were quite powerful but not from twitter physical strength. Their powers came from illusion and protection magic, as well as healing. Melian, a Maia turned elven queen protected an entire kingdom for hundreds of years. This protection Morgoth could not penetrate with his armies. Luthien was able to weave illusions to walk right up to the heart of Angband. She could charm and subdue the fell creatures and even Sauron himself (maybe even Morgoth I can’t recall).
Many of the Elven queens and maids were exceptionally beautiful. Believe it or not that is quite powerful.
Many could also foresee the future or read intent in the minds of others. These are all amazing powers which could have profound realization in a proper adaptation.
But no. It looks like she elf just gets to club orcs like any other man. It’s just poor writing and a cop out.
Melkor aka Morgoth was pretty damn evil from the beginning. Everything bad and fell in middle earth came from him. He kidnapped and corrupted some of the original elves, turning them into orcs. He corrupted many Maia, including bad boy Sauron. Heck, he corrupted the land itself.
The entire History of the Silmarils involved his utter hatred for elves in general and the Noldar in particular.
He was Tolkiens thinly veiled Lucifer.
I have zero faith that they’ll portray him accurately.
