I don't know what the problem is. Personally, I love the celebration of capitalism parading around the severed head of religion.

step up from enslaved elves though?

It's not slavery because they enjoy it.

Did Santa tell you that?

Or Santa's factory is made of porcelain?

The elfs are in the business of making perfect counterfeits. It'd just be bad practice not to mark them as made where the real stuff is.

New theory dropped: elfs are Chinese!

Or elves, though that doesn't explain how they came from the West. Maybe from an America centric view? Or the Chinese are the Avari, that could be it. In which case, dwarves in their mountains might be Tibetans? Kazakhs? "The bridge of Kazakh-Dûm" sounds about right, somewhere around the Hall of Kazakh-Stan. I think I'm on to something! Now then, since we know Ngauruhoe is Orodruin, that would make New Zealand to be Mordor, and I guess Gondor must be Australia.

Now, the Avari are the 'dark' elves, who haven't seen the light of the two trees. Is that why they make toys for Santa, to be hung on Christmas trees, to remember that connection they never had? Yes! It fits!

Flippant Anarchism. A lighter take on social criticism with the aim of agitation.

Post humorous takes on capitalism and the states which prop it up. Memes, shitposting, screenshots of humorous good takes, discussions making fun of some reactionary online, it all works.

This community is anarchist-flavored. Reactionary takes won't be tolerated.

Don't take yourselves too seriously. Serious posts go to !anarchism@lemmy.dbzer0.com
