Ahem okay
I’m not entirely sure if this is the case, and it goes deeper then this, but I think this must have been Tolkiens reason why he didn’t think the left could work, even though it’s really democracy. We don’t really have hardly any real democracy. Basically it’s why we can’t work together cooperatively.
But I think the picture he painted with the one ring of power, symbolizes how he viewed relations with others, and Tolkien was considered an INFP, so that’s pretty wild to me, I think it’s his experiences with introverted feeling, “Fi” infps dominant function is Fi.
Frodo Baggins is commonly typed as an INFP too, it’s interesting I’ve had my own theories on introverted feeling and its relation to the surrounding world, I think this must be Tolkien’s own.
I’m not sure it makes as much sense when it’s adapted to a more literal translation, but I think stands, there is no literal “ring” I’m not sure what would stand for its place but nonetheless, what represents introverted feeling, and various experiences, thoughts and feelings and perspectives that go along with it. It surmises to say, Tolkien was inferring that not many people can withstand introverted feeling themselves or bare the burden of it because they would in some way become corrupted and eventually used for evil I suppose.
It’s how people become corrupted by dark forces overall I guess. I use Fi as an example, but I don’t only mean Fi, it’s just that it goes in the way of explaining what I’m trying to say a lot. It’s something along the lines of Fi I think.
I’m not sure what the literal translation of putting on and wearing the ring would be.
It almost states that all power corrupts and leads to evil, I’m not sure if it’s really saying that but, nonetheless it’s hard to tell the difference. One having to do with dark forced which is real, the other not.
