    It is particularly funny because I just read Tolkien is on record having effectively based the dwarves on jews lol, I wanted to know if Felix realized that, I half remember that he kind of did. At least I remember the general point of him bringing it up was poking fun at his dad.

      It's all right there with the dwarves once you see it like some kind of antisemitic Magic Eye picture.

        It's kind of cute of Tolkien, to make jews into the least powerful race group in his fantasy world, like that fact ironically made me entertain the idea maybe he wasn't a virulent racist lol.
