People who hate Frodo Baggins are my enemy. "He didn't do anything and was useless"--yeah, okay, so what you're not understanding is that he was the sacrificial lamb. He endured physical, mental, and emotional torment that got worse and worse as his will broke. Everyone knew this. EVERYONE KNEW THIS. That's why everyone was devastated about it. Because Frodo was the most innocent among them, that was the entire point. He represented ordinary peaceful people being destroyed by the horrors of war. And as a hobbit he also represented some of the last vestiges of magic in what was basically a post magic apocalypse.
Frodo was basically an innocent puppy thrown into the Torment Nexus so that EVERYONE ELSE could maybe have a hope of surviving. And he did that willingly. HE DID IT OF HIS OWN FREE WILL, KNOWING IT WOULD RUIN HIM.
Frodo haters won't see the light of heaven
Also, AND THIS IS REALLY IMPORTANT, he was resistant to the ring's corruption. It took a couple minutes for Isuldur to be swayed by the ring but Frodo admittedly a little fumbled at the end but he resisted the ring for months, maybe even for a year. That was the most important, the most crucial role Frodo had as the ring bearer. Not falling to the ring's allure and he did pretty well.
