In the most recent episode of the series titled “The Last of the Starks”, there’s a scene where you can clearly see a modern day coffee cup sitting on a table right in front of Daenerys.

Don't forget about Robb Stark's pregnant Wife being stabbed to death in the stomach during the Red Wedding. No outrage for that. Thank god the scene where Khal Drogo consummates the marriage with Dany happened in the series premiere before GoT became as popular as it has or we would never have heard the end of it.
OMG!!! I was thinking of the South Park movie too, lol.So basically all the criticism came from camps protecting their own identity. A white woman for Sansa and a black woman Misande. Silent af when they needlessly sent all the brown people to die in episode 3 for no damn good reason. Why would strangers to the land lead the charge at night in place they didn't know. Operation Human Shield hide behind the darkies. smh

What's sad is we use to be able to see humanity in everyone now its strictly reserved for those we think look like us whatever that means. I get the people who most look like me are black but its not like I can't see myself in Asians or Europeans its not like seeing a Native American in pain doesn't make me feel something. Honestly when did we become so callous.Actually there were discussions on twitter, on blogs and on news media sites about the POC being sacrificed to protect a nation of white folks who hadn't even shown any appreciation for them. Was the chatter as big as the ones regarding rapes and this most recent death of Missandei? No. That rape discussion of Sansa was a dominant topic back when it happened. But the key thing is that she is a main character with a name we all know. Faceless Dorathki and Unsullied are not going to generate as much outrage.
That said fuck all of those people who have been whining about this shit. This is a show in which mass slaughter, unjustified and cruel killings, castrations, beheadings, infanticide, crippling, feticide, being burned alive, hangings, etc, has been occurring since episode one of season one. But outrage is limited to only a couple of scenarios:
1- Female characters who are raped
2-Women of color (black women) who are killed.
It must have been so gut-wrenching for people, in particular black women, to see Missandei lose her head. Everyone was expecting Grey Worm to die (for the last two seasons in fact), so they had mentally had accepted that fate for him. To kill the black chick threw them for such a loop. And why wouldn't it? Black female characters rarely die in genre TV. GoT writers subverted expectations and though I was sad about what happened I also welcomed it in regard to Grey Worm. For at least another week the masses didn't get their death of a black man.
And fuck DuVernay. I doubt she has been a long viewer of the show, most likely a Johnny Come Lately. The one time she tweets about the show it is to express her hurt feelings about the one black woman being killed. I guess being a black woman was supposed to give the character a sort of plot armor or convenience armor to allow her to remain alive by series' end.
It’s always been that way. There have been studies. Social media just shines a brighter light on it.What's sad is we use to be able to see humanity in everyone now its strictly reserved for those we think look like us whatever that means.

This comes from the simultaneous ghettoissation and feminissation of our people.What's sad is we use to be able to see humanity in everyone now its strictly reserved for those we think look like us whatever that means.
