thus she becomes the very thing she's fighting against. She spoke against tyranny, ruling with fear automatically makes one a tyrant.

Guys, y'all really need to watch this video on twitter.

You'd understand everything about Danny and how hard she tried to play the "right game"

The video is a total sum up of her character. https://twitter.com/thronesfacts/status/1129278813278310400?s=19

The video below is way better-17mins 27secs

Stop shifting goalposts.

This is not a Bible and Quran debate.

This is also not the American invasion debate.

You said Cersei did worse and she wasn't called mad. I'm telling you she didn't kill innocents, including children in their thousands.

The 'If' statement doesn't count. You brought in the Cersei analogy, so stop speaking in probabilities now.

oyetpel:


You need to stop with your sayings that Cersie didn't kill innocents and children. Its irritating

Buharifanatic:
and manipulative, she is really a student of little finger


All she wants is to be queen

Is it possible that the three-eyed raven is the true architect of everything that happened, including what Dany did to King's Landing? He was the one who informed Jon and Sansa that Jon has a better claim to the Iron throne, which set events into motion that resulted in the destruction of King's landing. He may have been the one that told the mad king to burn down King's landing and made him crazy just as he did to Hodor. But Jaime prevented that from happening. And he may be the one that drove Dany to burn them all? The three eyed raven has no regard for individual lives. He is all about the big picture. Perhaps he orchestrated all the bloodshed in order to rebuild Westeros as a democratic society? Destroying the capital destroyed the people and institutions that made Westeros what it is. With that done, it's easier to build something better.

codedguy1:


The Freys were all in on the plot to Massacre the starks and their bannermen at the red wedding. Arya witnessed some of it. So when she revenged she was targeting the Freys by poisoning the wine they drank and particularly baking Freys 2 sons for him to eat. In the poisoning scenario if there was anyone there that was not in on the plan but died after taking the wine, we can describe that as collateral damage. She targeted the main people who killed her family and it was unfortunate that some innocents were there.

melodyogonna:

or she could just kill Jon.

Gbola5:


All the Freys ? Even Roslin ?

Seun:

Jon has been called the Forest Gump of Westeros. He keeps doing stupid things and getting lucky. Even when he died, they brought him back. Perhaps he will set up some kind of democracy and conduct elections for the leadership of new Westeros, since he doesn't want to be a king.


There is some precedent for Dany going back to Mereen. She keeps saying "I don't have love here" implying that she knows that she has love somewhere else. That's Mereen. If Westeros forgives her for massacring the innocent citizens of the capital city, she may be able to return there. They have not shown Dany's face since she started the massacre - not even in episode 6 previews. Perhaps there's some regret there?

Buharifanatic:
B4 som1 is called mad


The person will do something repeatedly then people will say this one done mad ooo


Dany did only 1 tin and una jump on the wagon calling her mad

Cersei did many mad things, nobody called her mad


Make una continue, e go clear soon

Gbola5:


All the Freys ? Even Roslin ?

zicoraads:

See how you left the part where I said in their thousands, so as to drive home your biased view.

Now you are the one who is becoming irritating.

Seunpaul01:




No one can tell. But she will surely feel remorseful and regretful.
The revenge attack or display of people hate will be hotter in kingslanding than Mereen. She could abdicate.

Seun:
She specifically mentioned that the men in the room were those who participated in the red wedding.

melodyogonna:

Not trying to defend her but thousands of people die Everytime a city is sacked. old and young alike.

zicoraads:

Good video no doubt.

But the fact still remains that she already had the city. At the point where those soldiers dropped their swords, nothing stood in her way.

Still, she decided to go on a murdering spree.

Seun:

Yep. According to Jorah Mormont, "Have you ever seen a war in which innocents didn't die by the thousands? I was in King's Landing after the sack, Khaleesi. You know what I saw? Butchery. Babies, children, old men, more women raped than you can count. There's a beast in every man, and it stirs when you put a sword in his hand...but the Unsullied are not men. They do not rape, they do not put cities to the sword unless they're ordered to do so. If you buy them, the only men they'll kill are those you want dead." So she went to Astapor to buy the Unsullied.

It's so sad because she had the only army in their world that could take King's Landing without destroying it, but she destroyed it anyway.

KushCollectible:
Did You Notice that Game of Thrones Steathily Changed the Geography of King's Landing?

The old King's Landing was built on a small peninsula and protected at the flank by hilly forests.

Now, we've got a giant flat swath of land with enough room to assemble an army making an appearance before the very end of the last season.

Why?

Well, the city of Dubrovnik in Croatia was originally used for shooting the 'real world' King's Landing scenes. The shooting set was later changed to Spain. The showrunners haven't come out to say why exactly the change was made as far as I know.

Guys I think I now understand what she did.
I don't think her intentions were to burn innocent people, she made a decision to burn kingslanding to the ground which unfortunately had people in them. I think the writers focusing on the common folks made it look like she was deliberately burning innocent people but as D& D said, they focused on the common folks to show who actually suffered the decisions of the high lords and ladies.
The city caused her so much pain she decided to burn it to the ground, I expect she will rule from dragonstone.

as I said earlier, those folks were at the wrong place at the wrong time and they have cercei and her propaganda agents to thank for it, she made them believe inside the city was the safest place to be while in reality she wanted to use them as shields - she also wanted to use them to implicate Dany cos she knew thousands of them would die if the city was to be stormed, that way it would look like she was trying to protect her common folks and Dany came and burned them all with her dragons.

Dany agreed to bring her peaceful terms despite losing a child, a term that would have saved the lives of everyone in the city, what did cercei do? she drove Dany further into both a mad rage, mourning and loneliness by killing the sister she could not have - Missandei was her best friend, her closest confidant, her most trusted advisor and her sister. Cercei killed everyone in that city as much as Dany. If I had a dragon and a large army I doubt I wouldn't do much worse than her in that situation. I would have made sure there will be no stone left standing on another. to make matters worse, this varys was planning treason right under her nose and Jon refused to be a shoulder to cry on (this is the point I missed ser Jorah the most). If Jon had not acted like a fool she would have blurted out her thoughts amid tears which would have meant an opportunity to talk her out of it.

Mtchew this whole thing just dey vex me.

afolwalex20:


She won the war already. She could have gone to the Red Keep and burn it down, but she chose to destroy the whole city. If her intentions was to burn kings landing to the ground, doing it without innocent people in it was possible. Why not burn it after everyone move away?

She was betrayed, we know.
She lost loved ones, we know.

Other characters were betrayed and they lost loved ones, too. I didn't see any of them focusing their anger on destroying innocent lives when it wasn't neccesary. The writers made Cerci mad. They want us to believe she isn't fit to be a ruler. I guess are successful.
