game of thrones is extremely unrealistic. fantasy elements aside, laws don't exist in this universe and people just seem to do whatever they want all the time and everyone just goes along with ithouses in game of thrones act more akin to tribes of feral niggers than people who built massive castles and created a functioning societyit's just so fucking stupid and unrealistic. joffrey and his wanton sadism is the most egregious example of this.throughout literally all of history if an incompetent person inherits a kingdom they're sidelined while other people rule on their behalf... but in GOT they just let joffrey decapitate ned stark and destroy everything. this show was written by a toddler and goerge rr martin is a retard. so much stupid shit happens 24/7 in every episodecastrating theon, too. i know it's supposed to be fantasy in a world where dragons exist, but i cant suspend my disbelief for a second because the characters just act so retarded all the time just for shock valuedogshit show

from an in-universe perspective Joffrey never did anything particularly egregious
>>217005507From an in universe perspective joffrey was the product of treasonous incest and had no right to live. Every breath he drew was egregious.
>>217005548According to Stannis and nobody else with zero proof. Why should anyone believe him?
You almost got me
>>217005463the tangerine tyrant cant do whatever he wants or nuke russia or behead biden tomorrow if he feels like it>>217005507the people in GOT don't even act like people so this means nothing
>>217005418But what about Aragorn's Tax Policy?

>>217005971It's relative to the system of government. Blowing up Venezuelans is pretty close. As always though, his behavior is less astonishing than the 5th avenue support it engenders.
>>217005418joffrey was getting sidelined but he was still the official king, Ned's beheading was bascially a spontaneous thing he decided to do during a public speech when everyone of his advisors thought he would pardon him
