“Dany going mad could have been good if they had just developed it more”

Sorry but no. having a female character in a position of power (especially one in a traditionally male role/position) go mad or become corrupt with power or whatever, isnt new or subversive or unique. It’s been done a million times and is a trope in its own right. One that very commonly relies on deeply misogynistic undertones (and in GoT’s case extremely troubling stereotypes of mental illness as well) Not to mention GoT already has a villain queen that looses her shit, making it redundant as well as lazy.

Daenerys went from genre defying iconic female character that inspired millions of women to (and excuse my language) another crazy bitch that needs to be put down by her male counterpart. It doesn’t matter if they took 5 seasons to write her “descent”, just like they could have spent 5 seasons writing Jaime undoing all of his character growth and running back to Cersei. it would have still been trash even if it made sense.

For the record, I’m not saying descent into villainy is always a bad story arc, it can be well crafted, throught provoking and even novel but for some characters it just won’t fit. Tyrion would have been a better fit (there was actual ground work there) or hell even Jon Snow if given enough time. It couldn’t have been worse than the one flavor “I dun wan it” white bread we got by the end 🙄

tldr: just bc it could have been done better doesn’t mean it would have been good. A bad arc is a bad arc no matter how logical.

Also side note: it’s hilarious to me when people say this and then also try to argue that “she’s been this way the whole time you just didn’t see it” (and people have said this to me) like wut? That doesn’t make any sense. She can’t be both the hero that becomes the villain and secretly the villain the whole time. you can’t fall from hero to villain if you were never the hero

If she was always a secretly a villain then her becoming a villain would have inherently made sense in hindsight but you just admitted that it didn’t... so what’s the story chief? She mad or ain’t she? 🤣

I found Hozier’s “Let’s Play” YouTube channel and it was just him playing Minecraft and trying to befriend the creepers but he always ended up dying.

Yes I'm a fucking asshole. I have different opinions than you, guess that makes me an asshole.

I'm also very tired and very done with everyone.

Ah yes, Sansa Stans ruining my 2020 by attacking me over my literal pointing out that Stanks wear black and no one cares but as soon as Dany does it, she's “evil” and a monster. Stfu.

[stilldanytrash]

Um, when we say Dany is going dark by her colors we’re talking about her wearing both the red and black of her house colors. The same house that comes from a culture that enslaves and conquers people. We see that in earlier seasons when Dany is screaming about how “she’ll take what is hers with Fire and Blood” Fire and blood being the slogan of her house and all the terrible things her ancestors had done. She had embraced the darkness long ago. Many seasons past. Her downfall was inevitable.

Stop beating the dead horse.

The Starks house colours are grey and white.

Daenerys' house colours are red and black.

She doesn't wear much black until the later seasons, much like literally every other character who isn't in the night's watch. And Daenerys doesn't “scream” about the fire and blood quote in the books. By the way, your precious Sansa Stark will not live happily ever after because that's not how the world works. She will offend someone somewhere along her reign by not wanting to marry, and that person will rally banners against her and she will most likely die.

Do not ever come seeking me again. I don't give two shits about House Stank or you rabid assholes.

Well, by that logic Abraham Lincoln should have never tried to stop slavery. The Civil War fucked up the South's economy pretty bad! Sit down and shut the fuck up, you slavery apologists.
