    I’m starting to wish I was as ignorant as these people. With a brain that smooth, all the problems in the world must slide right off. It must be like a state of nirvana.

    The sword here is a metaphor for civic authority and she's handing it to him

    I really like this meme. Particularly the omission of this part:

    Particularly since without Merry, the Witch King would just keep respawning until the Ring is destroyed. Which makes their meme unintentionally line up so well with history and liberals' misperception of it that it becomes a bit of a self-goal.

    (For those who don't know, in the book Merry's sword is enchanted/special in some way that breaks the spells which allows WK to actually die die)
