Show where in Tolkien where that is a thing.

Where is getting his haircut? Cause fades aren’t a thing in Middle Earth.
This is mythology for the ENGLISH.

The actors admit they aren’t performing Tolkien, the are all about representation.

You’re ok with Galadriel’s husband being dead?

Pure crap.
It’s all woke, feminist super Mary Sue BS!

Damn, are you paid to shill for Amazon?

The ONLY thing you got right in ALL of your rants is there’s a black Elf and Dwarf, when Tolkien never mentioned a darker color for those races. That’s it, and I mentioned elsewhere it bothers me a bit, but as long as Arondir doesn’t start complaining that Sauron is keeping him down because he’s black I can tolerate his character.

Everything else you said is wrong. Tolkien’s Galadriel was strong, stubborn and driven to stop evil after she lost all three of her brothers (you see one die in the show, not her husband). Her husband, Celeborn, hasn’t even appeared in the show, and she doesn’t study wisdom until after marriage. Tolkien described her as “the only female to stand tall in those days.” She was a leader of armies during the Wars of Beleriand.

Harfoots are one of three Hobbit races, and described as “browner” than the others.

Aragorn’s line is not depicted as black. The Numenoreans (Dunedain) haven’t appeared yet.

The wizards (Istari) don’t appear until the Third Age.
