"But what about the economy??" as the response to Daenerys freeing the slaves has to be one the most vile takes I've ever seen.
There is nothing wrong with people disliking Dany, pointing out her mistakes, not finding her character compelling, not being invested in her story, etc. Just tag your posts accordingly and stay out of the main tag.
However, if you think that abolishing slavery is a bad thing because it hurts the economy, you need to reevaluate your moral beliefs. You are trying to partly justify one of the darkest parts of human history just so you can use it against a fictional character. You are making horrible real-life implications when you say that we should focus on the effect that abolishing slavery has on the economy.
Nothing can justify owning human beings. Nothing.
I don't know about you, but I'd much rather live in a place with a shitty economy than in a place where slavery is legal.
