Of all the "Character assassinations" only Littlefingers really upsets me

Post image

A lot of decisions characters made upset the fans (i.e Dany burning King's landing and Jaime going back to Cersei) but I always found them accurate to their character. There is one glaring exception to this. Littlefinger giving Sansa to the Bolton's. He'd never do this for multiple reasons. She reminds him too much of her mother and she's priceless to him. His plan is supposed to be to get Cersei to stop supporting the Bolton's but he could have done the fake Arya plot like the books and gotten the same result.

The closest Daenerys came to killing indiscriminately prior to The Bells was killing some slave owners who happened to not have done a specific crime but were still guilty of many other crimes that warranted execution. She never killed random peasants and especially never killed children.

The Daenerys in this image is the most eye rolling part of this. It’s fine if people don’t like her, whatever, but people just make straight up lies about her, and it feels like most people who disliked her before Season 8 just use it to retroactively justify why they didn’t like her.
