What is going on

civil discussion is impossible on /r/asoiaf because there is bound to be someone who cries out “it’s okay/normal in westeros!” like okay bitch! you don’t live in westeros! you live in the real world! welcome to 2018 on earth where we have morals and civility and no dragons!

apparently pointing out that robert raped and abused cersei is “pc” now

I WAS ACCUSED OF BEING “PC” BECAUSE I SAID CERSEI WAS RAPED AND ABUSED

Rhaegar and Robert were both trash men, thanks for coming to my ted talk

Oop here come the downvotes for pointing out that he raped and abused Cersei for 15 years

And these threads always invite discussion of Lyanna who by now I do not trust any man to talk about. Why did I click through on this thread when I knew I’d hate it

GREAT there’s a thread on Robert on reddit and there’s already people pouring in to defend him, saying he was ~in love~ and wanted to ~feel alive again~, that he was really a ~decent man~. I cannot handle this anymore 🗣 ROBERT BARATHEON WAS A RAPIST, AN ABUSER, AND REWARDED THE MURDERS OF AN INNOCENT WOMAN AND HER CHILDREN, AND PLANNED TO KILL DAENERYS TOO, ANOTHER CHILD 🗣
