Is Miyazaki correct in his assertion that the evil monsters in Lord of the Rings, or Alien, etc. are just metaphors for other races?

No, he's just a autistic leftist Jap and seeing the Arab swordsman get shot in Indiana Jones and all the other Japs in the theater laugh made him upset.
He didn't get that the scene is funny because of the absurdity, they weren't laughing because it was an Arab but he was too autistic to understand that.
Also orcs in LotR are a metaphor for industrialized warfare they aren't specifically German.

“Americans shoot things and they blow up and the like, so as you’d expect, they make movies like that,” said Miyazaki at the time.

>“If someone is the enemy, it’s okay to kill endless numbers of them,” he continued. “Lord of the Rings is like that. If it’s the enemy, there’s killing without separation between civilians and soldiers. That falls within collateral damage. How many people are being killed in attacks in Afghanistan? The Lord of the Rings is a movie that has no problem doing that [not separating civilians from enemies, apparently]. If you read the original work, you’ll understand, but in reality, the ones who were being killed are Asians and Africans. Those who don’t know that, yet say they love fantasy are idiots.”

>“Even in the Indiana Jones movies, there is a white guy who, ‘bang,’ shoots people, right? Japanese people who go along and enjoy with that are unbelievably embarrassing. You are the ones that, ‘bang,’ get shot. Watching [those movies] without any self-awareness is unbelievable. There’s no pride, no historical perspective. You don’t know how you are viewed by a country like America.”

True fiction and battles in fiction can stem only from archetypal deitism of sort. Most fiction today is trash and forgettable because it attempts to produce myth out of fleeting experiences of the current day. This is why modern fiction never survives the test of time, and cannot become as grand as real mythology, religion and folktales.

The real struggles humanity faces are those that happen within - between the anima, animus, ego, superego, shadow, hero, wise man, etc. And any struggle we experience in our waking life is a distorted projection of those archetypes. The distortion is what causes these stories to become superficial and forgettable. Humanity has alienated itself from its natural talent to witness inner struggles from a clear vantage point. This is why everything they project onto the screen or pages today has an impression of cultural rot.

The White man is the Hero of this Universe and the center off it. They can't do a movie without him because no one would watch it.

Tom Cruise starring in The Last Samurai or Brad Pitt in Seven Years in Tibet. If those movies were all asians it would have bombed at the box office and everyone knows it.

Miyazaki is too high IQ for the average American to understand. They hate him because he sees through the performative PR.

He became blackpilled after working with Hollywood, he's not yapping from an outsider perspective, he understands these people very well.

I would believe you if this wasn't a reoccurring trend in movies of that era. Count the death toll in an old western and notice how most people die are Native American or Spanish.

Not to mention, in anglo-Hollywood, they gave the actors playing Native Americans modern rifles. That's how PERFIDIOUS anglos are, that's how ILLEGITIMATE anglos are to anything American.

Fun fact: Spain founded America in 1493 AD, and treated Natives as Spaniards.

Tolkien viewed slavics as subhuman, but he claimed there was no analogue to his fake races in the real world, so I choose to believe him.
His hatred of "orcs" came from a hatred of industrialisation in Birmingham UK, the hub of manufacturing at the time. The shire is a thin stretch of woodland alongside a stream that was his childhood getaway from his industrial home in Moseley, Birmingham.
Moseley bog next door to that was his inspiration for the eastern bog regions.

Ah yes! I remember the hordes of orc civilians! Entire orc towns wiped off the map by those evil walking trees! Millions of displaced orc women and children as their men-folk fought valiantly to evacuate as many as possible!

Continuing, the shire being burnt down after their adventure was a reference to his home being bombed during the war, with green spaces that he loved being built upon by capital leaders with no regard to conservation.

Because people have been blowing smoke up his arse for fifty years and he thinks his incredibly second year writing degree commie takes on things ARE ACTUALLY PROFOUND and that he'll go down in history as an intellectual. Not a purveyor of simplistic navel-gazing shit for children. He's also incredibly bitter about taking out this autism on his son.

He is projecting. It is kind of the true, but Tolkien would hate people being literal and reductive about it. Like he was concerned people would think dwarves are jewish. They aren't a specific people just like Gondorians and Rohirim aren't specific people. (for example, both Rohirim and the halflings seem saxon, but are different like night and day). Rather, the races represent premises for races, so do the evil races.

The Haradim are a subverted people. They aren't inherently evil, but picked the wrong side in this one.
The orcs are dysgenic. Whereas a healthy race has a heritage of beauty, they are people with a heritage of ugliness. Whereas a healthy race lives in harmony with nature, they assert themselves onto it with technology. In protecting the memory of what your parents told you is sacred, people like these will always be your foes.

He's totally right on Robinson Crusoe though, shit's colonialist as fuck.

Where are you getting this colonialism shtick? Yeah, he made a hut and had a goat farm, but setting up shelter and food is basic survival tactics. And it's not like he was going to the mainland and kidnapping natives for slave labor. He saved a native who was part of a losing faction in a war between natives and about to be executed and the native paid him back for saving his life. I can quote the book right here and now.

regarding your example of Friday

Friday realizes that his life in the society of cannibals was very primitive and insignificant. And he does not mind being a servant of the higher intelligence, and the higher intelligence does not treat him like an animal, thereby Friday expands his horizons and ascends to the level of the higher intelligence.

Later, Friday and Robinson civilize the cannibal society and the Island becomes an acceptable place to live and a place where victims of future shipwrecks can receive help.

But these are fantasies. Our Cruso story is a thriller.

Doesn't he literally introduce Friday as a slave when he gets back to civilization? The whole thing is certainly framed as epic hypercompetent white man being super generous to the nigger by civilizing him.
There's a lot to be said about how various aborigines caused much of their own ruin throughout history, but the general contempt for the natives and a sense of his superiority permeates the book.

Back when Lord of the Rings was written, most of the world was infact inhabited by actual savages.
Japan was no different than Britain in this aspect. They had an empire and were trying to conquer the barbarian nations that were full of savagery. Britain was just that much better at it than Japan. But the Japanese world view was no different than Britains.

No. The only mention of Friday when he gets back to civilization is, "With this view I took shipping for Lisbon, where I arriv'd in April following; my man Friday accompanying me very honestly in all these ramblings, and proving a most faithful servant upon all occasions." After that, it's just a bunch of bookkeeping and setting up wills and estates and the like.
Yeah, he's hypercompetent, but what action adventure thriller features a dimwit protag?
Also, I do remember now that he was a co-owner of several Brazilian plantations that made use of slave labor, so I guess it technically has colonialism, but it's not like he was out making slaves. He was buying them for working on a farm.
