Anyways, Abraham Lincoln was no lefty wefty.

They were the Republicans then just as they are now, and as such, they simply could not abide a competing empire on this continent.

Oh indeed. SJWs may try to rewrite history and suggest otherwise, but they would do that, now wouldn't they?

The SJW's of the Civil War era were the Copperheads (Peaceniks) and Doughfaces (Enemy Sympathizers)

Lincoln was actually a ruthless Republican militarist who waged total war against his own people.

I mean the Republicans burnt Richmond to the ground.

As close as you could get to a nuclear strike in the 19th century.

Even if you think their cause was just, it was still the Republicans, same as they are now.

[Smitty-48]

This is why they call it the Party of Lincoln.

That's what they are. Lincolnites.

Unconditional Surrender.

Terrible Swift Sword.

Glory, glory, hallelujah

The Democrats were the Democrats.

The Republicans were the Republicans.

They haven't actually changed fundamentally in a hundred and fifty years.

The Night King's fatal flaw, smugness.

When there was mystery surrounding them, they were cool, the more we learned about them, the lamer they got though, the LOST trap.

Again, DrY..what's the SJW'iness of freeing slaves? Or stopping warriors from raping their prisoners?

Basically it's the hypocrisy that I'm pointing out.
She was fine with them sacking the village.
In fact they were sacking the village in order to fulfill her goal to take power.
So she is no saint.
But she draws a line... out of "goodness"...
But rather than thank her for her kindness... the people of the village naturally see her as conqueror... and an enemy.

She expected this woman to help her... not seeing how in her eyes she was the enemy... therefore bringing calamity on Khal Drogo who had been indulging her despite his men's warnings. She was the Khal's downfall in the end.

This is classic SJW stuff... window dressing care for the oppressed... and then shock when they are perceived as oppressors despite their good deeds.

No. The original definition of SJW was as a sarcastic label on people who fought for abdurd things only they thought were SJ issues. Like trying to police all uses of the word "black" because they believe it refers to black people. Or that there is something sexist in correcting a woman. The current SJWs do fit your description, in the hypocrisy departement, but that sort of hypocrisy is absurdly common among any of current exyreme political and religious movements, left and right.

In alot of interviews, GRRM had said that he wouldn't make a Tolkienesque ending. Yet the NK still ended up as more boring version of Sauron. To me that was the biggest waste of potentially interesting antagonists.
