In Peter Jackson's interpretation of J.R.R. Tolkien's The Lord of the Rings: The Two Towers, there is a speech by Sam Gamgee that is rather fitting for the present shadow that is looming over all the Earth.
Near the end of the film, when Osgiliath is under siege of the Nazgul, Frodo turns to Sam and says "I can't do this"
The speech that Sam gives to Frodo is a speech that I think every Patriot needs to hear right now.
Sam says to Frodo:
It's all wrong. By rights, we shouldn't even be here. But we are.
Its like in the great stories Mr. Frodo. The ones that really mattered.
Full of darkness and danger they were, and sometimes you didn't want to know the end. Because hw could the end be happy? How could the world go back to the way it was when so much bad happened?
But in the end, it’s only a passing thing, this shadow. Even darkness must pass.
A new day will come, and when the sun shines it will shine out the clearer.
Those were the stories that stayed with you; that meant something, even if you were too small to understand why.
But I think, Mr. Frodo, I do understand.
I know now.
Folk in those stories had lots of chances of turning back only they didn’t. Because they were holding on to something.
Frodo then turns to Sam and asked him:
What are we holding on to, Sam?
To which Sam replies:
That there’s some good in this world, Mr. Frodo. And it’s worth fighting for.
Like Frodo and Sam, we all have opportunities to turn back each day. Any day any one of you on this forum could give in, get the vaccine, and fall in line with the demands of the CDC, WHO, FDA, and the corrupt governments of the world. Only you haven't, and you won't, because like Sam, you know that there is still some good in this world, and you are going to continue to fight for that good until your dying breath.
The fight for freedom may seem difficult now, but we know that there is a light at the end of this tunnel brighter than any that came before us. President Trump told us himself that THE BEST HAS YET TO COME.
We must realize that at the end of this battle we will have defeated the CDC, WHO, FDA, FBI, CIA, NSA, FED, along with every corrupt government and central bank of the world. Just as Sauron's tower fell when Frodo cast the ring into the fires of Mount Doom, so too shall these towers of evil fall upon our Great Awakening.
Keep going Patriots! Keep fighting the good fight! Every day you press on is a day of victory for The Great Awakening.
the problem isn't that there are people in positions of non-power that aren't taking up arms.
The problem is that there are people who sincerely believe that they are above other people, and should make policy decisions for the rest of humanity.
Actually, the problem is the countless spinless fuckwitts that would rather see their children consumed for sport than exert themselves in any way whatsoever.
But no, go on with your LOTR themed post.
Not sure what you're talking about. Maybe you're falling to the temptation of misinterpreting every disagreement as "missing the point," as you say.
Either way, you're never going to succeed while cherry picking your allies. Best of luck to you.
Stop whipping the people on you side, and start paying attention to the people you could possibly convert, Catssix.
Otherwise, you're a useless cog in the machine of greatness.
Yea Catssix, he missed the point.
Rot in the mire of Mordor, you stupid orc.
Hey, you were defending Star Wars in an earlier post and I upvoted it. Don't shit on LOTR now. The ring represents the corruption inside all of humanity and how those who are humble and good can overcome it even against all odds. In fact, JRR Tolkien wrote LOTR after his experiences in WWI. Why disparage OP for trying to send an inspiring message?
I'm not really sure what happened here, TBH. My original post (for which I was obliterated) was a commentary on how good people are patient enough to sit out a kinetic conflict, and that the real problem is people (school board members, for example) who see themselves as above their constituents.
I don't see a reason for why I got this kickback, I just don't. I'm not sure if the people who down-voted me (including you) really read and understood the content of my post.
Thanks for your support on the Star Wars thread, I just thought that was a really weird interpretation of the plot.
