To be fair, Machiavelli and Nietzsche read like teenagers trying to be edgy.

There is certainly an extent to which both of them are probably trying to be edgy, or at least shocking. Nietzsche in particular is v big into saying things that are patently ridiculous as an attempt to get you to think things through.

But I also think a lot of it is them being misread in that way.

I do think it's fair to consider whether they may be misread. Also, as I'm thinking about it, it occurs to me that their writings might just be very period-specific. And that leads me to wonder about the concept of timelessness, and whether it has any actual meaning.

I'll have to think more about this. To me, their ideas come across as being very simple when subjected to scrutiny, but it might be worth reevaluating where they were coming from.

It's likely there's also a thread of 'Tolkein is cliche' in there. They were both very influential writers in their schools, so there's been a lot of expanding on or arguing against what they have to say. They also both poked at some of the sacred cows of their day, which have since been taken out back and slaughtered, so the apparent simplicity of their ideas might be partly attributed to the change in social and philosophical framework
