not that anon, but I think he wrote Tolkein's Failed Quest which was about how lotr is a ripoff of wagner's ring cycle, wagner wanted the dwarves to be jews but tolkein made them not as jewy, how jackson is a Zionist jew and filled the movies with Zionism while the books demonize it, smaug is a metaphor for usury, and jews did wars tacked on near the end

I just finished reading Logos Rising in its entirety. Parts of the book that deal with Hegel and Thomist philosophy are quite dense and will likely filter anyone who doesn't already have a working grasp of these topics. I really enjoyed the final chapter, which was an analysis of the Iranian revolution and how the cultural dialectic of our era is between capitalism and religion. Overall, I highly recommend Logos Rising as well as EMJ's work in general.

I think Tolkien was influenced by Wagner, but they're still doing different things, and I agree that he's being a bit autistic about what the story "should have meant".

Haven't actually read EMJ's spergout about Tolkien but my own understanding is that EMJ thinks (with some justification) that the magic ring in Wagner's Ring Cycle was a metaphor for [Jewish obv] usury. But Tolkien was somewhat philosemitic so he used Wagner's magic ring idea wrong and more generally Tolkien wasn't hard enough on the Jews [dwarves].

In 1945 a Jewish historian by the name of Samuel Igra published Germany's National Vice, which called homosexuality the "poisoned stream" that ran through the heart of Nazism. (In the 1920s and 30s, homosexuality was known as "the German vice" across Europe because of the debaucheries of the Weimar period.) Igra, who escaped Germany in 1939, claims that Hitler "had been a male prostitute in Vienna at the time of his sojourn there, from 1907 to 1912, and that he practiced the same calling in Munich from 1912 to 1914" (Igra:67). Desmond Seward, in Napoleon and Hitler, says Hitler is listed as a homosexual in Viennese police records The Pink Swastika by Scott Lively and Kevin Abrams.
