like sure it is a fictional fantasy world at the end of the day, but that doesn't negate the prevalence of these ideologies within the fandom. like sorry that i don't really want to see works endorsing and justifying white pureness and endogamy

period bitch. they got some weird white purity shit going on

somehow pointing that out makes me the conservative one now because i said the targaryen obsession with “pure blood” is tied to whiteness. like… girl. that’s not being conservative, that’s called basic media literacy

atp when people write “targaryen reader,” they might as well just say the reader is white…. and that’s why it’s frustrating sometimes. because if the goal is just to write a valyrian character, there are literally so many other options : ppl from lys, volantis, the free cities, anywhere with valyrian ancestry. the world is huge. but no, it always has to be targaryen, and then people act surprised when some readers say it doesn’t feel very inclusive or they feel weirded out

the reaction is always the same: suddenly you’re the prudish one, the weird one, the one who “can’t handle incest in an incestuous family.” except that’s not even what’s happening in most of those fics. it’s not critical or exploring the darker side of it — it’s straight up romanticized.

like i’m sorry but baelor with his daughter?? maekar with his daughter?? that’s just nasty. even the targaryens themselves didn’t cross that line in canon, so why are ppl writing it like it’s normal.

Y'all will go on and on about the abuse and trauma suffered by white men like Billy and Henry, defend them, thirst over them, woobify them etc

But the very goddamn second there is an equally hurt and traumatized brown woman on your screens who is grieving and beaten down and fucking EXHAUSTED by the weight of what she's endured, what her sister and countless others have endured or may endure in the future, and genuinely doesn't see any other way to stop the pain and suffering other than death, you racist ass motherfuckers immediately start bending over backwards in your attempt to villanize her, call her a traitor, even insist that she's secretly in league with the fucking mind flayer because why?

Because a non-white character doesnt fit into your pre approved box of how they should be? Because you hate to see a woman whose trauma doesn't make her soft and sad and fragile?
