The only people who do the "war is hell" narrative never actually fought.War is badass.
If that was your takeaway from Lord of the Rings then you're genuinely retarded.
>>217390346God you are stupid. these are depictions but on screen by the directors and other production people involved with said movie and tv show. They are no in anyway reflective of Tolkien or GRRM's actual feelings on war. Also Tolkien's LOTOR is entirely an anti-war tale you fucking retard.
>>217390346Boy, I wonder who's behind this thread
>>217390346Who are the people you're talking about and what movies are these though?
>>217390346You have to get AIDS to know AIDS is bad
>>217390346What war did you fight in?
>>217390346Peter Jackson fought in the trenches of WW1? Damn I didn't know he was that old.
>Fighting other humans that are culturally and genetically similar to you is the same as fighting bloodthirsty creatures created by literal corrupting black magic/pol/ really makes your brain atrophy
>>217390346Tolkien's take on war, I think, was that it's necessary and makes way for both the best and worst of humanity. Corruption, deceit, cowardice, yet courage, camaraderie, self sacrifice.GRRM's take is that war is rape, because everything in his worldview is rape.

>>217390346You image is 300 pixels high. I can't make out what the fuck the left thing is. If the right is LotR, the point is moot because that's based on Jackson's take. Get illustrations from your novels and make this on /lit/, faggot.
First of all, Tolkien did not make Peter Hackson movies. Secondly, this is what Tolkien actually thought of war.>It was Sam's first view of a battle of Men against Men, and he did not like it much. He was glad that he could not see the dead face. He wondered what the man's name was and where he came from; and if he was really evil of heart, or what lies or threats had led him on the long march from his home; and if he would not really rather have stayed there in peace-all in a flash of thought which was quickly driven from his mind.
>>217391001kek will got owned so hard in this movie.
>>217390346Left is from LotR too no?
>>217391001>>217391186The answer is simple.>i have the potential to. other members of my species can. can any of yours?
>>217390346If you had read the book you'd know that the battles were extremely brief by pagecount. Helm's deep is almost an afterthought in book 3.
>>217391114>Tolkien's take on war, I think, was that it's necessary and makes way for both the best and worst of humanity.How the fuck did you get this? All the characters go out of their way to avoid wars. They only engage when the enemy is literally at the gates
War is actually good for your health.
>>217392317>I do not love the bright sword for its sharpness, nor the arrow for its swiftness, nor the warrior for his glory. I love only that which they defend. Did you miss the entire part where ignoring Mordor/Sauron/Saruman as they assembled armies brought huge catastrophe to Middle Earth?
>>217390346Survivor's bias.
>>217391321no, that would actually be clever bait and that's too high a bar for this board

nowadays you can fucked by missiles, artillery, mines and drones. War is dogshit since the introduction of black powder

If someone tried to pull this shit monologue on me after i killed a jeet, I'd know they've been captured by Satan
>>217391100So fighting against humans that are NOT culturally and genetically similar to me is fine, yes? Thanks for the update, tranny.
>>217394372>If someone tried to pull this shit monologue on me after i killed a jeet, I'd know they've been captured by SatanThe bible doesn't support white supremacy.
>trannies trying to convince people that Tolkien was a pacifistSame people that will tell you he was totally a hecking wholesome socialist (while donating to the Crown for almost his entire life).
>>217394449The Bible doesn't support any political system. It does however repeatedly state that you should fight against evil and be there for your kin. Mgubu from Africa is not my kin and if you try to pull that shit on anyone I will consider you an enemy as well, trannoid.
>>217392381did you miss the part where mordor had been completely conquered before? or the part where the war part of the war of the ring was a diversion and the leaders knew it was, on its own, pointless? or the part where the valar had completely forsworn war because it was too destructive to middle earth?or the part where sauron and mordor are permanently defeated by 2 unassuming hobbits that went out of their way to not fight?in all of tolkien's works, violence is tolerated when you're backed into a corner with no alternative to keep yourself alive but lasting benefits always come from non-violent approaches. militarism always either proceeds from, or leads to, corruption. the noldor, the numenoreans both before and after defeating sauron, the numenoreans in exile>>217394456>you're either a pacifist or a 50 iq jingoist>brings up trannies out of nowhere>>>/pol/
>>217394449You need to be human to apply to the Kingdom of God, anon.
>>217394491>Mgubu from Africa is not my kinhello american evangelical, you should probably read paul's letters yourself instead of listening to pastor dale's preachingBut now that faith has come, we are no longer under a guardian, 26 for in Christ Jesus uyou are all sons of God, through faith. 27 For as many of you as vwere baptized winto Christ have xput on Christ. 28 yThere is neither Jew nor Greek, there is neither slave7 nor free, zthere is no male and female, for you are all one in Christ Jesus. 29 And aif you are Christ’s, then you are Abraham’s offspring, bheirs according to promise.
