Why did he want to destroy Middle Earth so bad?

Why did he want to destroy Middle Earth so bad?

He wanted to be the big guy

He tried to follow his sex master's footsteps.

wtf i hate sauron now

He didn't want to destroy the world. He wanted to rule it.

Some men just want to watch the world burn, other men just need penicillin.

Because you're either The Ruler or the The Ruled.

He didn't like how it was populated by prancing normalfags.

He had beef with men after being taken captive in Numenor. Sure, he was responsible for it sinking. But enslaving the free races of Middle Earth would finish the job.

Plus his master was literally the Tolken version of Satan, and Sauron wanted to follow in his footsteps.

still butthurt about morgoth getting cucked

He wanted to do his Boss's job

sauron has no compelling motivation

he is just a generic bad guy

>you can see his teeth behind the mask

"In my story Sauron represents as near an approach to the wholly evil will as is possible. He had gone the way of all tyrants: beginning well, at least on the level that while desiring to order all things according to his own wisdom he still at first considered the (economic) well-being of other inhabitants of the Earth. But he went further than human tyrants in pride and the lust for domination, being in origin an immortal (angelic) spirit. Sauron desired to be a God-King, and was held to be this by his servants, by a triple treachery: 1. Because of his admiration of Strength he had become a follower of Morgoth and fell with him down into the depths of evil, becoming his chief agent in Middle Earth. 2. when Morgoth was defeated by the Valar finally he forsook his allegiance; but out of fear only; he did not present himself to the Valar or sue for pardon, and remained in Middle Earth. 3. When he found how greatly his knowledge was admired by all other rational creatures and how easy it was to influence them, his pride became boundless.
—J.R.R. Tolkien[16]"

Was that in the books or in the book that told the story thru his perspective

He was a nigger.

Who said anything about destroying? His people lived in a valley covered in volcanic ash, he wanted some of that prime real estate, but the Elves were all like NOT IN MY BACKYARD ORCBOYS and the humans were like whatever you say sir, you're the ones with the money.

He is basicly an ancient orc sorceror similar to how Gandolf is a human wizard. He wants middle earth for orcs, instead of the human, dwarf, elfs.

>orc sorceror
>human wizard
Please don't pretend to know what you're talking about, it's embarrassing.

implying sauron wouldnt wipe out the orcs once they served their purpose

It's in the Silmarillion

>but out of fear only; he did not present himself to the Valar or sue for pardon, and remained in Middle Earth.

i don't understand these words

morgoth died
so sauron took his place

only because he was scared
evidence: he didn't take valar to court and remained in middle earth?

it's a metafor for islam

He wanted to industrialize middle earth but the tree hugging hippies who do nothing but smoke pot all day like Gandalf and the Hobbits didn't think it was a good thing.

Really makes you think...

Well yeah. He has a face

the valar either imprisoned morgoth in the void indefinitely or straight up executed him, depending on the source

sauron figured he'd be punished the same way. He was also too proud to go and beg for mercy.
