I was watching the news and they said Sauron was just joking.

[–] Barbarian@sh.itjust.works 15 points 2 days ago (1 children)

They said Sauron could increase how much gold I could sell my bread for at the market. I like money, seems like a good thing to me. Something to do with a tow-riff? I dunno, I'm just a baker.

TOE RIFF. That's a toe riff.
If you vote for Sauron he'll provide you with a bard that can play the mandolin with their toes.
Which will attract more customers.

Also he'll drive out your competing store keepers to further lift your profits.
Sauron promises to only hurt people you want to be hurt.

A vote for Sauron is a vote for prosperity.

By competing store owners, I'm assuming you don't mean Barry. Barry's a cool guy, we trade sourdough starters sometimes. You said "only people I want to be hurt", so I assume Barry'll be fine. Sure, I'll vote Sauron!

[–] D_C@sh.itjust.works 3 points 2 days ago

Yeah, yeah, of course, yeah, Sauron knows Barry. Yeah, no problem. Again, Sauron will only hurt the people you want to be hurt. Don't delay, vote Honest Sauron today!!

Coming up next: Sauron's Board of Peace - Curse or blessing for Middle-earth? Our correspondent Gríma Wormtongue knows more.

Let’s see how the appeal plays out in the lower courts first

Voters didnt go out because the only human in the fellowship group was a paladin. Sauron proceedes to own the humans for the next few centuries.

The Hobbits are making signs to protest in the Shire, and writing angry letters to each other in an attempt to stop him.

[–] grue@lemmy.world 7 points 2 days ago (1 children)

Much like in real life, the vast majority of the Hobbits had no fucking clue what was going on outside their bubble or that anything was wrong until Sharkey and his ruffians showed up.

[–] danekrae@lemmy.world 4 points 2 days ago

And even then, they had to have well traveled, brave Hobbits call them to action.

Congrats! You got the joke, but still somehow missed it.
