[Rune Son of Bjarne]

Well for one I don't agree with your analesys of collectivism. I see at as a system of ownership and control of the means of production and distribution by the people collectively. So it is a mather of who owns what and all of the top evil persons is as LMP says despots and there way of governing really has nothing to do with collectivism.

The orcs may be symbol to the masses in such a system, but that depends on Tolkiens view on collectivism. (By my view it could not be further from the truth)Some people think that people are turned into mindless slaves in collectivism, I don't.
