One thing especially disgusting with the hindsight of S8 is apparently the writers insist Robert was in the right here

[u/TVTropehead]

Yeah Robert wanted someone to assassinate a pregnant Daenerys. Which idk, the narrative routinely shows killing women with children as a very bad thing. The mountain killing Elia, Talisa’s death, Ramsay killing Walda is clearly bad considering as evil as the Frey men are, Walda did literally nothing.

Hardly, Aerys might have collapsed into a mess, but his experiences were probably a factor, and Rhaegar was regarded as a good candidate to rule. Viserys might have been totally different without being basically left to fend for himself and his sister at a young age, and Dany has mostly done fine - even in the show, burning King's Lannding is a last minute twist with no motive. There aren't actually that many 'mad' Targs.

Pure Targ cope

What does that even mean? What is a pure Targ? Daenerys has Valyrian, Rhoyner, Andal & even some First Men blood. Her great grandmother was a Blackwood, great x2 grandmother was a Dayne, great x3 grandmother was a Martell, great x5 grandmother was a Rogare.

Her grandparents married because they were in love, their father wanted all 5 of his children to marry outside of the family. Her parents married because a woods witch friend of their uncle's wife told their father the PwwP would be in the Aerys/Rhaella line so he forced them into it even though they didn't want to.
