And when Frodo, Merry, Pippin and Sam came back from the war they rallied the kulaks and they lynched and expelled the immigrants based on their racial profile. Then they did a coup, declared fealty to foreign kingdom completely ignoring any local authority. And pushed back Shire from the road of progress into the kulak farmville, which effect was that hobbits “faded” and disappeared later.
saruman reads like “brought railroads to uncivilized people”, so he is spiritually british, enslaving local peasant society. (although economics of hobbiton doesn’t make goddamn sense anyway, samwise is hereditary gardener/butler)
Saruman is 100% spiritually british and imo we should applaud tolkien for rejecting (both in lotr and in his letters) the propaganda of britain/imperial powers having the right to rule the colonies to spread civilisation
Samwise isnt a hereditary gardener (see my reply to polandisastateofmind), but hereditary professions are actually pretty common historically
