Rodger Sherman @rodger.bsky.social · 08/05/2026I have been rewatching Game of Thrones and it’s pretty striking how the most famous plot point of the early seasons is about how you shouldn’t break deals with/needlessly antagonize irrational actors that control essential chokepoints 311105111
realsandy @realsandy.bsky.social · 08/05/2026That makes sense, but we are not living in that movie, we are in a monster destroys America dystopian movie. 010
Berserkerkitten @berserkerkitten.bsky.social · 08/05/2026God, I hope the US will have an ending that's more satisfying and less stupid than S8 of GoT. Doesn't seem realistic at this point, but ... man. 150
markusenofan.bsky.social @markusenofan.bsky.social · 08/05/2026With a healthy side dish of if you attack/injure/kill kids there needs to be a reckoning... 130
Darren and Benny 🙏🌍💚 @mrmoog.bsky.social · 08/05/2026I just watched the final episode today. It mirrors current politics to a tea. Nothing has changed over thousands of years really. The inspiration for plot and character was evident from our own past and present. Excellent series. 👍 010
Cornell treats rapists better than anti-genocide protesters @asthepalacesburn.bsky.social · 08/05/2026You get that Iran is not an irrational actor and that Iran has done everything it could to avoid antagonizing the irrational aggressors for many years now, right? The analog to the Red Wedding is the US and Israel launching attacks during peace talks which they have done over and over again. 000

Maryanne R @bluheart.bsky.social · 08/05/2026I just started it again as well. My third time. My take… You can’t trust/believe anyone in power. 031
Tinweasel @solitarycamel.bsky.social · 08/05/2026What about the incest part, where does that fit in here 230
jokercowgarage.bsky.social @jokercowgarage.bsky.social · 08/05/2026Yet in a strange twist here in the real world, the decrepit, gross man with multiple younger wives is the antagonist, not the holder of the chokepoint. 1231

nuoutlook.bsky.social @nuoutlook.bsky.social · 08/05/2026Sounds like a lesson this current regime hasn't learned. (Maybe they need to watch Game of Thrones) 010
Robb @robbj.bsky.social · 08/05/2026Fantasy Author: In my book I invented the Red Wedding as a cautionary tale. The American President: At long last, we have recreated the conditions of the Red Wedding from classic fantasy novel Don't Get Red Wedding’d. Let’s all enjoy a song. 2598
Claudia Montague Wheatley @claudiamw.bsky.social · 08/05/2026… I mean, most adults have known about the Strait of Hormuz from prior REPUBLICAN adventures in the Middle East. Unfortunately, Donald Trump isn’t one of them. 140
SugarBearChi @sugarbearchi74.bsky.social · 08/05/2026I think about the parallels often. Also, the rich staying in power but paying their debts. And the vulnerability caused by sticking to earnest principles. 010
