Dany's headed for some sort of idenitity crisis for sure.

I think you're over-estimating the show-writers.

The note was the letter Cersei forced Sansa to write in season one - pleading with Robb to bend the knee. Littlefinger wants Arya to attack Sansa. But Sansa would be prepared, because he warned her.

Well, the allies did team up with Stalin to get rid of Hitler. I wouldn't say Stalin was any more trustworthy than Cersei.

Cersei has a reputation of being ruthless, but people still assume she's a rational actor trying to maximize her benefits. As a rational actor she might realize that the Others are the bigger threat right now, and that there's no point in defeating Dany just to be over-run by ice-zombies afterwards.

I think Dany loves Jorah like she might love the old family dog she grew up with. That goes beyond "friendzoning", for better or worse.

Dany's reluctant to go with that "burning you all with my 3 dragons" option, because she wants to be beloved by the smallfolk, so she wants to minimize the amount of people she burns. The dragons should be a last resort, otherwise people will say she's just like her dad. (And Varys will plot to remove her, and if she…

That's what we get for skipping Aegon. I think he's the one who's going to be executed in this manner by Dany in the books. On the marcolevel it's important that she executes someone in this manner, because Dany's Westeros campaign is fated to be a P.R. disaster.

What she gains by the truce is a bit of time to prevent the zombie-apocalypse. Of course she could also move straight to King's Landing, but she still would have to lay siege to it, and even if Cersei prospects are bad, that might take a while. (Unless Dany just burns everything down, but that's still not quite how…

My hope is that all these reveals are really just for us viewers, and for the poetic irony, and it will never really matter on the plot level, because that toddler makes short work of the book. (I loved books as a toddler, but my love was a bit rough.)

I think that's how it will play out eventually, but I think, right now Arya's indignation is still genuine.

My money's on Jorah, Beric and Thoros.

The books start with an execution. We get to know the executed character a bit in the prologue - a nightwatch's man who had a run in with the Others; he has just seen unspeakable horror, he's traumatized, he runs for his life. A sympathetic character with relatable motives. And then Ned beheads him for desertion.…

That went totally over my head, sorry.

Original poster explicitely specified "non-disenfranchised" voters. Black people are disproportionally impacted by restrictive voter I.D laws, and the prison-industrial complex.

I read it as a defense againt the accusation of hatefulness, yes. (Along the lines of "don't attribute to malice what can be explained by stupidity" - it's not a rare sentiment; please forgive me for projecting it on you). And I do think that's giving them too much credit. I think there are many cases where malice and…

So "stupid" is to be taken as a personal insult, and "bully" isn't? We've both been using loaded language, so if you are in favour of taking the high road, you should have led by example.

And where in my comment did_I_ tell anyone how to feel?

So I'm not supposed to feel ashamed right now?

Oh, I'm sure you're not feeling righteous at all right now…
