the hotd fandom’s reaction to gwayne hightower has been nothing short of baffling to me so far. it’s no secret that people’s love to hate criston cole has been prone to making them miss the point in a major way but this to me is kind of a new level. the idea that he is “slay” or “serving cunt” or even that he legitimately sees through criston and resents him for being a bad person is a stunning misinterpretation of what the show is obviously saying. which is that gwayne hightower is racist. he talks to criston that way because criston is brown. and poor.

#peggypost #gwayne hightower #criston cole #hotd #like enjoy gwayne if you want hate criston if you want ship them if you want it’s the misinterpretation that gets to me #gwayne who appears to canonically know fucking nothing about criston commenting on his modest beginnings #and the fact that he wasn’t BORN or BRED anywhere near the crownlands? like how could they be more obvious #why then if gwayne knows nothing about Criston would these comments have anything to do w criston not deserving what he has #gwayne Hightower looked down the barrel of the camera and said ‘I am an elitist racist’ and fans said oooooo yes get Cristons ass #it’s strange to me but maybe just to me!
