I was playing the 3rd Age mod for Medieval 2 Total War, as the Free Peoples of Eridoar or whatever it's called. Im the biggest faction in the game ,thanks to my monatary and military succsess, Ive helped Rohan and Gondor push back the forces of evil PAST the black gates, thats right bitches, I captured the black gates, the iron hills, the northlands, so on so forth, im an Empire of goodness, AND one of my Generals found the ring of power. woo hoo

However, Mordor has advanced North into Mirkwood, threatening My outlying frontier towns, the Silvian elves, and Dale. However, when i provided financial aid to the Silvian elves, instead of, you know, building an army to prepare for their imminent destruction, they declared war on the DWARVES. the dwarves that have done nothing to no one the entire game.

This got me thinking about something shortly after i ground the civilizations of Gundabar (Orcies) and the Misty Mountain Orcs to the dust....

1; Middle Earth is Rascist - Think about, everyone lives in segregated societies. Humans live away from the elves, elves live away from the dwarves, so on so forth. Orcs live away from everyone caues the past thousands years theyve been being shot by arrows because of mans greed and a simple fault in the rulership of a power crazed dark lord. All politicians make mistakes, amirite?

While humans are bickering among themselves, the 'bad guys', which include orcs, arabians and men with great crazy beards and all of societies 'unwanteds' based on more then likely segregationist-feudal doctrines that govern the human, elf, and dwarf kingdoms, can actually create some form of working order. Sure it's for the blood lust of revenge on the world of man, BUT technically, its a revolution to liberate themselves from there crappy volcanic-wasteland ghetto.

2; The Orcs arn't all that bad - Think about it, despite they're massive numbers, they are middle earths minority, so to speak. They have language, and can speak english, proving there is some form of intellegiance there, YET because of things in the past, society has expelled them to a very undesirable slab of land in the middle of the worlds most polluted zone. Not a happy place to raise your children. You'd be pissed to.

So this guy, Sauron says to his workers and shunned members of societies "This ain't fair!" (Because they have been shunned, they have not had the ability for a proper education like the rest of society, another problem) and he adopts a sort of doctrine that includes;

I-Gather many followers
II-Take over the world of man/eat man meat ()

or atleast thats as much as the movies portray, if we delve deeper into the revolution, it could go one of two ways. Way one is;

III - establish a fair government! ( Level up! )

OR

III - Make the elves, humans and dwarves a minority, and make them feel what we felt

Which would basically make a cycle and a few hundred years later morder would be back to square one ALL over.

But do you get my point here? The fact that the 'forces of evil' are fighting is completely justifiable, they want justice! And frankly, they deserve it too. Just as logn as they dont eat me. Sauron is kind of like the Racial rights protester of the past, demanding equality. He grew up in the hood (Thats mordor) and knows what racism causes, and wants change, and is working towards that change.

3: Whats next?

Whats the world of good supposed to do after Mordor is dead and the orcs are dead. Oh yes. They'll just kill each other. First the Elves cause they like, live in trees and stuff. Just set the forest on fire. Then the Dwarves cause they have much gold and what not. Men like shiny things. But then man will kill each other. Eridoar, rohan, Gondor, they'll all kill each other, we know its goona happen! Man will always want more land, which will thus PROVE that the whole "Guys, lets go kill Mordor" thing was just a land-grab hoax. Or sumthin.

I think everyone could work together. Orcs could being a transition into society slowly, get mandatory education and become learnid, likable people. How do we know this works? Well, in another world of fantasty, while not as well built as tolkiens, we can see the orcs which have similar qualities to those as Tolkiens, are members of society. I am referring to the land of The Elder Scrolls. Suuuure they eat each other, and horses. And they probably would eat humans if laws didn't prevent them from doing so, BUT it is proof that segregation doesn't need to exist!

And what about this whole ring deal?

Sauron made it cause he was just a pimp some form of artist, no doubt. Sure everyone says that he 'made it all magical' and stuff, but in reality, im sure it was an alchemy mistake, just like how, you know, chemists blow there asses up all the time. Obviously he had good intentions, he gave rings to all the other kinds, he was trying to promote friendship and show that the orcs were just a bunch of bros. And the arabs, and the french hairy beard men.

So in closing, I think that the whole middle earth situation was just a big old misunderstanding, like the time the soviets accidentally almost put missile bases in cuba that one time. (That was an accident, right?)

tolkien just didn't like orcs. Thats all. He probably had a mean ole' fat aunt that was an orc, that spawned this whole, terrible misunderstanding.
