Ooooh the perils of what about-ism. It’s almost always a false equivalence and then you end up looking like a dumb jackass. Let’s recap…
- Lost their home to conquest. Check.
- Went to war to take it back. Check.
- Won said war to take back said home. Cheeeck.
- Expects loyalty from other Northern houses. Check.
- And when said loyalty is not granted:
(Pictured: Lord Glover, after refusing to fight for House Stark; current status: alive)
- Lost her home to conquest. Check.
- Went to war to take it back. Check.
- Won said war to take back said home. NOOOPE.
- Expects loyalty from some people that at one time swore an oath to some other people that swore an oath to her after breaking a prior oath that they’d sworn to some other people. Check, check and cheeeck.
- And when said loyalty is not granted:
(Pictured: Lord Randyll Tarly and younger son Dickon Tarly, after refusing to fight for Daenerys Targaryen; current status: do you prefer original recipe or extra crispy?)
But no, no whatever dumbass came up with this comparison is absolutely right—both of those outcomes are EXACTLY the same.
