I asked ChatGPT
Why wasn't Hitler a balrog?Hitler was not a balrog because balrogs are fictional creatures from the fantasy world of Middle-earth, created by J.R.R. Tolkien. Hitler was a real historical figure and the leader of Nazi Germany during World War II. He had no supernatural powers or abilities and was not a mythical creature.James ErringtonWhy wasn't Sauron a balrog?Sauron was not a balrog either because, like Hitler, Sauron is a fictional character from the fantasy world of Middle-earth created by J.R.R. Tolkien. In the story, Sauron was a powerful dark lord and the main antagonist of the "Lord of the Rings" series. Balrogs were powerful demons that served Sauron, but Sauron himself was not a balrog. He was a Maia, a spirit of fire and magic, and took on various forms throughout the story, including that of a giant flaming eye.
