If that's the case, my apologies then, although it seens impossible to reproduce such response with your prompt, because it still provides a bunch of reasons. As for my reaction, nothing wrong with technically challenged and no screenshot, but I'm sure you can see how this did not exactly invite confidence
Not like I'm upset, no problem
Too bad we're on lotro forum and many of us Tolkien geeks are versed in nuance. I mean, it's Tolkien.
No, it's not, and there was no pretending, just pointing out there are many skin tones (under the category of African-like black, not Mideaterrenian) and we could argue which climate zone/latitude said subset of people originally originated from and how would that correspond
Not all of them were black, like Tolkien himself said, only some. Yep, a long time, with plenty of turmoil in-between, and I see you don't want to look up how our skin color may change over a lot of generations
Imaginary world of Tolkien, which he strived to portray in a very academic/historical way, mirroring things as they would appear in the real world, evolution of languages, movements of peoples, passage of time etc. But of course that's too much nuance for you
