How could we possibly have seen this coming?.. Sure, it’s named after the tool Sauron used to spy on and subject the wills of friend and foe alike. But it’s not like it was named Morgoth or Ungoliant or anything obviously evil!
actually the palantir weren’t necessarily evil and weren’t a tool of sauron, it’s just that since he had one too and was basically a god he could influence the others, and even that only selectively because he couldn’t force the palantir to show things that weren’t real (no deepfakes)

Basically the palantiri are smartphones and sauron is ghislaine maxwell (i.e. a reddit psyop mod)
