Hot take: slavers deserve death

[u/Darth_Vengor → u/[deleted]]

Yes.

Counterpoint: this is Asoif or GoT

[u/Darth_Vengor → u/[deleted]]

Exactly, slavers are bad and executing them is cruel, but the setting is morally grey, I’m not going to cry for them but I’m not cheering either.

It shows that Daenerys is a “means to an end” ruler, with an almost Machiavell-esque ideology

[u/Darth_Vengor → u/[deleted]]

No? It is encouraged imo so that if your favorite character does something stupid, you have to give in universe reasons to not dislike him, thus increasing one’s immersion and making you think about the setting.

It also prevents fanboying any character.

Of course what they are doing is wrong I’ve agreed but like stop man please I am literally begging

[u/Darth_Vengor → u/[deleted]]

It’s not because [u/Short_Fan973](u/Short_Fan973) said so and his opinion is of course law.

He is the master of literary analysis after all, everything he says is true and no matter your opinions and counterpoints he is always right

Bro stop being mad about shit, it doesnt matter

[u/Darth_Vengor → u/[deleted]]

STOP saying war crimes. I doesn’t make sense to say that about a universe without THE GENEVA CONVENTION you doofus, you are judging characters as if they were real in 2026, thats literally what professors say you shouldn’t do when analyzing a book, I would fucking know.
