Beautiful. I love how you point out that people distracted by the race and gender diversity forgot the obvious class warfare in the show. I do wonder if they plan to go somewhere with it or if they just want to play it coy not to offend their Lord and savior Bezos. Time will tell. Great work!

This is likely my favorite article by you, Alex… while I’ve often thought identity politics was a distraction to the class and wealth disparity issues, I did not see the accents and roles in Rings of Power as clearly as you did, it cracked me up and made me cranky. Hahaha…. I do truly hope the left and new right can see how close we are to being on the same side if we could just recognize the distractions that Moloch uses to keep us fighting amongst ourselves.
