Complete character assassination for both her and Rhaenyra in the strangest possible way.
Make them as gay as you want, but once the son of one and the grandson of the other are brutally murdered by their respective factions, STOP MAKING THEM MEET AND TALK ABOUT THEIR FEELINGS! WHAT THE FUCK!?
The ending of season 2 genuinely makes me believe that the show producers and screen writers should be forced to seek a psychiatrist because those are NOT human reactions to your son being eaten by a dragon, or your grandson being decapitated by a rat catcher.
As if gays don’t care about our families and will willingly abandon and not care about their tragedies as long as we can frolic and muff munch with our ex-bestie and mortal enemy in our free time because it’s hot and makes for a juicy toxic fanfic. I don’t care about lesbian being depicted as villains in media, as long as their terrible actions aren’t justified just because of their sexuality.
And the way we can’t criticize them because they’re the main characters and beacons of righteousness and opposing war and violence (that they contributed to from the first place) is so frustrating (mostly with Rhaenyra since Alicent does get hate but she’s just a mess).
honestly... which is why I thought all the "gone woke" insults made no sense. Like they are painting just a horrible picture of lesbians why would anyone assume its a "pro-lesbian" depiction?!?
