rubinsky recognizing his son’s similarity to himself + said son’s aspirations to overthrow him v. reinhard begging for an enemy..reinhard is calling for strong guys to meet him in a neutral starzone to have mutual combat

#yn.#lotgh #adrian rubinsky #rupert kesserling #reinhard von lohengramm #my unpop lotgh take is that i dont think reinhard has an actual ideology outside of constant warmongering #ofc he has things he may believe #but theres no commitment to them like yang or other charas truly have #reinhard fundamentally wants power.#and he wants the power to not be told what to do #this is also why. reinhard is a—[is shot]#& if political reforms/overthrow clear the slate for him to have competent enemies? so be it #hes like. meritocracy™️ and wanting to fight people all day.#bc this episode is also about how cruel reinhard has become post kircheis & how he views his officers as disposable peons.#Literally sent a guy to the shadow realm and destroyed the entire fortress kircheis Redacted on likee. hes not ok #the rosenritter fight on the surface of the fortresses is actually one of the coolest ever i need to do a full rewatch chi #this whole sub-arc of duke lohengramm but not king yet plays on reinhard’s cruelty grief n gayness. all part of one another #yang takes advantage of the fact reinhard is a bachelor w no kids to target his life at this pivotal juncture #hilde going ‘is reinhard a vessel for oberstein’s machiavellianism?’ naw pop rein was always like dat💓🫣#he just thinks people who dont have any skill or strength are disgusting.#and that. is a lot.#REINHARD WOULD CALL ME A WELFARE QUEEN💔💔💔💔💔💔#Re: when he links with yang.. yang has an ideology & a true desire for a simple life whereas reinhard is living on selfimposed borrowed time #‘i want power so i dont have to listen to people i dont like tell me things’#Like. wanting a simple life & to not listen to unsuitable authority is sympathetic!#i think on a fundamental level both of these desires r very easy to sympathize with but sprawl into behemoths & r so… so telling #characterization is where this show is the strongest imo my other unpop take ?
