GameofThrones makes us question evil in the real world | Opinion
My daughter was angry and my husband fed up. Daenerys Targaryen's decision to strafe King's Landing upset and outraged not just my family, but millions of viewers who watched the penultimate episode of Game of Thrones.
GoT is great television. Its visual scale, character development and narrative twists and turns help account for its success. It's as spectacular as any Marvel movie, and its heroes and villains are people whose humanity has been fleshed out over its eight-year run. Just as earlier generations unpacked parables, we try to make sense of unexpected plot twists. Online writers debate Dany's decision to burn down House Lannister and everyone in it in terms of politics, family dynamics, and the showrunners' narrative decisions.
Yet, according to some, the turn wasn't so unexpected. Hints of Dany's megalomania were seeded over the years, even if some of us preferred to see a feminist icon pledged to break the wheel of tyranny and oppression. Somehow we forgot Dany also was a very young woman whose belief in her singular destiny led her to make some very good as well as very bad decisions long before season eight, episode 5.
