At the height of Woke as well.

Kinda funny how much the showrunners fumbled that bag. Anyway Knight of the seven kingdoms is pretty good

    There’s pretty reasonable evidence in the books alone for Dany going mad. Subtle hints that the show didn’t recreate well. And since the end of Thrones is going to roughly match GRRMs planned ending, then it’s likely that Dany could be ambiguously mad and definitely does some burning.

      nope

      “My own heroes are the dreamers, those men and women who tried to make the world a better place than when they found it, whether in small ways or great ones. Some succeeded, some failed, most had mixed results… but it is the effort that’s heroic, as I see it. Win or lose, I admire those who fight the good fight.”

      This is GRRM talking about his heroes, clearly talking about Jon and Dany. Does this sound like someone who will go insane and kill everyone and become evil? This is such a trope that GRRM will obviously avoid the “swerve”

      The “mixed results” he talks about are also the “bittersweet ending” he has described the ending of the series as. The show ending was not “bittersweet” it was rancid and cynical and nihilistic.
