absolutely wild to niemöller at a person from one of the groups in the poem to argue that it’s good actually to let them come for some people because it’s a tactical victory. “i read niemöller & solved the trolley problem the omelas way” is what a surprising number of people sound like right now.

timb33 hashtag nokings says

First they came for the socialists etc. What if they came for some really small marginalized group of people (0.05% of population), and because we tied ourselves in knots trying to keep everyone happy, we never got into power, and never achieved anything.

I can’t believe it must needs be said: but when you “tactically” concede to let fascists murder a “small, unimportant” marginalized group, other people witness your violent calculus and realize you’re a scheming coward who will do anything to save your own skin, not a steadfast, trustworthy ally.

I woke up this morning with a map thought in my head, and here it is:

Subway-style map of the itinerary in The Hobbit. The main journey is show in three different lines: red (Hobbiton to Goblin Town); green (Goblin Town to the Elvenking's Halls); and blue (Elvenking's Halls to Erebor). There are multiple stops on these lines. There is a yellow line going back from Erebor to Hobbiton, making stops at Beorn's Hall, Rivendell, and the Troll's Lair. There is an orange line directly from the Iron Hills on the map's right side to Erebor, and a purple line from Gundabad directly to Erebor. The map's title reads: "Hobbit Transit Map" and there are directions for both There and Back Again listing the lines and transfer points. A key shows the names of each colored line:
Red: Western Lands Line
Green: Mountains and Forests Line
Blue: Barrel Line
Yellow: Gandalf Express
Orange: Iron Hills Business Line
Purple: Orc and Goblin Reserve Line

Text at the bottom right reads Surprised Eel Maps, 2025

The other day I drew a subway-style map for The Hobbit, and it was very well received. Some of you asked if I could do one for LoTR, so I have! Forgive the eel watermark; I'm working on making these something you can buy, if you like.

Subway style map to go with The Lord of the Rings, showing the different pathways of various parties throughout the book. The title reads: "Lord of the Rings Transit Map: One Does Not Simply Walk Ino Mordor When One Can Ride." The map takes up the middle part of the page, and there are two keys. The one on the left is titles "Standard Service Lines, and has color keys matched to the subway lines on the map. Lines are named:
"Shire-Bree Commuter Line
Old Forrest Crescent
Wildland Scenic Line
Fellowship Line
Gollum / Sméagol Line
Uruk Hai Express
Three Hunters Line
Fangorn Slow Service
Rohan to Gondor Business Line
Black Ships Ferry Service
Oliphant Direct Line
Army of the West Line
Gandalf Express

A smaller key on the right side of the map is labeled: "Limited Service Lines" and has color keys matched to the following names lines:
"Eagle Express
Paths of the Dead Line
Nazgûl Search & Resuce
Valinor Ltd."

A note at the bottom reads:
"* Mount Doom station only accepts Rings of Power in payment. Plan accordingly."

And the Israeli right would argue that they, too, are taking lessons from the Holocaust, it's just that their lessons aren't "Don't persecute minorities under fascism," but "the world doesn't care when Jews die, and antisemitism is eternal and unchanging."

A lot of non-Jewish leftists suggest Israel needs to "remember the Holocaust," as if the clear moral lesson from the Shoah is a universalist anti-genocide moral lesson. One can just as easily argue the opposite: That there is too *much* traumatic focus on the Holocaust in Israeli cultural memory.

Spraying the ICE agents with paint using a repurposed fire extinguisher appears to be a turning point in this confrontation in Tucson today. Same tactic worked well against around thirty cops at a Montreal protest in Nov. 2024, blinding at least one and forcing a whole unit to retreat down an alley.

After federal troops forced a fugitive slave named Anthony Burns back into slavery in the 1850s, one Bostonian wrote, “we went to bed one night old-fashioned, conservative, Compromise Union Whigs and waked up stark mad Abolitionists.” The abuse of power radicalizes people. We are seeing that now.
