"Chomsky: Gandalf knows the ring is powerless."

McSweeney's has a funny article with Howard Zinn and Noam Chomsky on the lord of the rings.


Chomsky: A terrible thing the Orcs do here, isn't it? They destroy nature. But again, what have we seen, time and time again?

Zinn: The Orcs have no resources. They're desperate.

Chomsky: Desperate people driven to do desperate things.

Zinn: Desperate to compete with the economic powerhouses of Rohan and Gondor.
