a lot of the so-called "inconsistent" writing for alicent is solved if people just accept the deliberate queer subtext/coding for her character. this has been the consistent since the begining of the series. alicent would be a better agent for the greens if she loved rhaenyra less. the show constantly highlights this through other characters.

Otto (dismissed in part because alicent believed rhaenyra's words over his, screaming in her face): cleave to rhaenyra and beg for her mercy

Otto (in the green council in 201 calling out alicent for preventing rhaenyra's assassination in 109): mistakes were made in the days after the king's death

aemond: alicent holds love for the enemy, that makes her a fool

aegon (after jaehaerys is killed): you wished for her life to be spared

if the leaks are true, alicent will once again make a "politically unsound" decision by keeping rhaenyra safe

alicent's enduring love for rhaenyra actively hurts her side, but it's also the one thing that has a chance of preventing the westerosi equivalent of a nuclear war. that in the end this love is not enough to save either of them is the tragedy. you may not like it but that's the story they're telling. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

the straights failing to grasp the point is always so funny

not to sound too rhaenicent pilled but it truly always is all about rhaenyra for alicent - everything she ever does is just another way to scream her name. like the pure layers of fucking your ex homoerotic situationship's former lover that helped contribute to the divide between you in the very rooms you two used to haunt together, reclaiming your own body and hers in a way you always wondered about, keeping yourself emotionally reserved from him only to then pour those feelings into letters for her...rhaenyra haunts alicent's narrative without even trying. good luck babe!

This is why Zionists spent months spreading lies and propaganda about rabid Palestinian men going on a raping spree against any innocent Jewish woman they could see on October 7th, to perpetuate this narrative that sexual violence committed by Palestinians against Israelis is a serious wide-spread issue because Palestinian men (or just brown men in general) are savage animals who breath and live solely for raping women, when in reality its the other way around.

By doing so, they embedded this caricature about Palestinian/Arab men into people's mind that makes them view them inherently as rapists, but never in a million year as a rape victim and that if they don't quickly rush to "condemn" these fake evidence-less rape allegations (not a single of each have been proven to happen by any reliable sources) then they're terrible people and rape-supporting anti-semites. Needless to say, those same people are definitely NOT in any rush to condemn these actually proven and verified rape cases by Israeli settlers.

All of which makes it easier for Zionists to continue their decades long history of sexual violence against Palestinians by having these concentration camps where Palestinian men and boys, just like Palestinian women and girls, regularly go through horrendous forms of torture and sexual abuse that don't receive a fraction of the attention, disclosure, sympathy and condemnation as all of those fake and already-debunked cases of Israeli women being brutally raped by Palestinian men, because everyone has decided that rape is something that's always committed by (brown) men and its victims are always (white) women.

This isn't anything new or exclusive to only Palestinian men, on top of the Israeli concentration camps, many innocent Muslim and Middle Eastern men over the years who have been subjugated through demeaning torture and sexual assault in other concentration camps such as Abu Ghraib or Guantanamo with no consequences for the perpetuators. Not even when we have real documented footage of those sexual crimes, that are literally posted online by the American or Israeli rapist-soldiers (often female soldiers) where they're shown smiling and laughing with their faces clearly seen as they torture the prisoners, because they know that as long as the victim is a Palestinian/Arab/Muslim man, there will be no consequences for them or any justice for their victims.

And people will just go on believing the notion that all Middle Eastern men are sexually-deprived raping machines who can't control themselves when they see a woman showing her ankle, when in reality foreigners occupiers and soldiers target them as much as they do to Middle Eastern women and subjugate them to the same level of sexual crimes, yet those foreigner occupiers and soldiers are never the ones who get associated with the words "rapist" or "terrorist" despite their long documented history of rape and other sexual crimes.

Fake Aid Truck Used to Carry Out Rescue Operation - US 'Special Cell' Participated in Nuseirat Massacre

A US special “hostage cell” played a crucial role in the rescue of four Israeli captives, the American news website Axios reported.

Exclusive footage obtained by Al-Jazeera showed Israeli special forces using an aid truck and a civilian car to carry out the operation. A US special “hostage cell” played a crucial role in the rescue of four Israeli captives, the American news website Axios reported on Saturday, citing a US administration official. Meanwhile, exclusive footage obtained by Al-Jazeera showed Israeli special forces using an aid truck and a civilian car to carry out the operation. The images depict civilian cars escorted by Israeli military tanks penetrating the western areas of the Nuseirat camp, amid a series of unprecedented air raids targeting the camp and various central Gaza Strip areas, resulting in over 200 Palestinian deaths and dozens of injuries so far. The Popular Resistance Committees in Gaza issued a statement, condemning the “horrific massacre committed by the zionist enemy through its planes, warships, tanks, and special forces in the Nuseirat camp”. “The massacre in the Nusseirat camp clearly and unequivocally reveals and confirms the participation of American enemy forces stationed on the floating dock in killing and slaughtering our people,” the statement continued adding that this happened “despite the criminal American administration’s assertion that this dock’s purpose is solely to pump humanitarian aid”.

“war bad. women no want war. women good gentle. men want war. men bad evil” -hotd writers.

[raidnae]

i have critiques of this show but this is not a fair interpretation. plenty of men on the show don't want a war; corlys didn't even want to join until his wife convinces him and otto's main strategy is using diplomatic alliances with other houses. he wants to do a kill on rhaenyra and her kids specifically to avoid a civil war. even aegon didn't even want the throne let alone a war until a certain sth happens. when both sides have nukes it's the most sane course of action to favor diplomacy (and smart ppl like otto and corlys understand that).

really the only people who want all out war (and act to incite it until diplomacy becomes impossible) is groomer uncle and a 17-year-old riding a mega-nuke.
