This. It's why they demonize LotR. They tried to corrupt and progressivize the series with Rings of Power, but the fans almost universally rejected it and continue to support only the original Middle Earth works. Their corruption failed so now they have to call Tolkien and his fans racist, sexist, homophobes. It's considered a sign of extremism in the UK to read 1984 and Lord of the Rings, and College Professors don't take kindly to the good professors' works.
