You guys are always yapping about how Criston Cole is Rhaenyra’s victim. Even though the show contradicts you on this point many times. Even though the producers contradict you on this point repeatedly.

However, no one wants to reckon with the fact that those men took a tale about a misogynistic paedophile and the child he groomed and isolated and then turned his child victim into the initiator/aggressor.

It’s par for the course with the adaptors. We watched it happen with Dany and Jorah, Doreah and Xaro Xhoan Daxos, Loras Tyrell and the homophobic way they adapted his story. The racist, heavily sexualised way they adapted the sand snakes and Ellaria Sand. I had hoped the fandom would know better by now but alas!

#before someone inevitably comes here to “but daemon” me #I will say that #daemon targaryen #did not get an adaptation that effectively whitewashed his character to the point that even book-only discussions of his character #are derailed by his antis.#if anything daemon was made extra evil #criston cole was whitewashed #to the point that people who have allegedly read the books are arguing that he was always #rhaenyra's victim.#it's absolutely maddening.#people justifying the homophobic rant he gives after viserys dies #people saying his usurpation of rhaenyra is justified #also being “but daemon-ed” is so fucking annoying #I don't even like that nigga but the way your lot talk about him has me wondering if any of you cracked open fire and blood #or rise of the dragon #or even the world of ice and fire #like damn #you niggas don't even slander Tywin this much and he's also a child murdering #woman murdering #war mongering #cruel #misogynist #like what gives?#house of the dragon #fire and blood #hotd #criston cole
