The only thing this is missing is the denialism that the ring exists at all
The ring is fake news!
The real ring is the pedophile ring Eowyn runs out of a pizza parlor in Gondor
The ring doesn’t exist. And if it does, it’s not that bad. And if it is, we can use it for good. And if we can’t, it’s cuz we deserve it.
The book did have denialism, the movie skipped it but it's there in the much more fun books.
But if it did exist, it would be a good thing
"we don't need to throw the FAKE ring into the fire! We can just eat lembas bread! That one guy ate some and didn't get killed by an Orc I don't care what Woke Rivendell says!"
It is the opinion of the Supreme Court of Gondor that evil no longer exists and thus pursuing endless power over Men through the use of the Ring is permissable and unlikely to result in ruin or abuse of power. So sayeth we all.
