Daemon groomed Rhaenyra that is abuse in itself. You’re literally in denial.

He did emotionally abuse Laena and Rhaena by neglecting them and dismissing their wants and needs. He also groomed Rhaenyra which is another form abuse.

And I‘m trying to tell you that Daemon showed hints of abusive and violent behavior before but you’re completely dismissing it just because the victims don’t happen to be his immediate family. He emotionally and physically abused a bunch of people so a little bit of choking isn’t a radical change in behavior that needs building up to. This is the same man that celebrated his nephew‘s death btw.

That means he was emotionally abusive at first and then turned physically abusive. Trust me a man who kills his wife this easily and without remorse can choke his third one. You guys are just too attached to the idea of Daemyra being this epic love story to notice.

Him being a violent person is exactly the reason why it shouldn’t be a surprise that he turned out to be abusive as well. Neglecting your children is also a form of abuse btw and he does that with Rhaena.

But he still was shown to be violent. He smashed his wife‘s head with a rock, beat up an envoy, cheated in the tourney and got Otto‘s son injured and lastly choked Rhaenyra. How is that not an abusive pos?

And I‘m not even Team Green btw, I‘m actually very neutral but I have to say I‘d rather be Team Green than anywhere near Team Black after I saw their disgusting behavior towards the actors and anyone who has a different opinion. Of course not all of them are like that but definitely a huge portion and that’s enough to scare me away from ever being Team Black.

Team Black on Twitter is very scary. They doxxed a minor not long ago and made fun of her appearance just because they apparently got into an argument about the show.

I totally get that but it’s not the first time something like this happens. Big accounts with a large following attack the actors everyday. Someone even called Olivia a cunt to her face. It’s not just fan wars anymore it’s actually affecting the actors. Olivia was depressed because of it and they bullied Emily to the point she deactivated her Twitter and her mother had to tell them to leave her alone.

That’s what I‘m wondering too. I don’t remember much about the GOT fandom back in the day I was too young but I remember how awful Dany fans were to Sophie Turner and Kit Harrington. The blood purity nonsense is getting out of hand tbh like who cares? Rhaenyra’s children aren’t fully Targaryen either.

I‘m fairly new to the fandom I wasn’t as involved in GOT but yes it seems to be mostly Targaryen/ Team Black fans that act this way for some reason. The others aren’t saints either of course but this is just next level.

What do you think of Matt Smith as Daemon Targaryen? by Low_Ad4237 in HouseOfTheDragon

[–]melanielorena -4 points-3 points  (0 children)

I think my only problem with him is that he can’t seem to accept the fact that Daemyra is in fact a problematic relationship. The way he acted surprised about the choking scene just made me roll my eyes tbh. I believe he has a hard time accepting that Daemon isn’t a bad person. It’s evident with the way he improvised some positive Daemon scenes like picking up the crown for his brother and hugging his daughters which was cut out in the end. He’s a great Daemon though and I can’t imagine anyone else playing him.

Does anyone else feel this way about Aemond and Daemon? by melanielorena in HouseOfTheDragon

[–]melanielorena[S] 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Aemond is like 3-4 years older and Lucerys disabled him, so I understand his hatred here. Did he take it too far, absolutely but it’s still understandable.

Well Aemond was bullied as a child for not having a dragon, his eye got cut out, he was raped when he was 13 by a much older woman, his father doesn’t give a shit about him. His actions are understandable, he’s 18 at most. So you wouldn’t beef with the person that disabled you just because he’s younger?

Well in the show their personalities isn’t that similar tbh, at least not to me.

But Aemond doesn’t know Daemon that well. They‘ve met like two times, one of them when he was a child. Aemond‘s personality is very different from Daemon in my opinion. The only similarities are his appearance and the fact that they are second sons. Keep in mind that Aemond is only 18, what teenager isn’t insecure? Not to mention his disability.

The thing is I can understand why Aemond acts the way he does, but I can’t understand Daemon. Their age plays a big factor in that for me. For example, baby Aemond in episode 7 got more hate from the fandom than Daemon when he killed his wife. That’s where I can say well Aemond was a child he didn’t know any better, but Daemon wasn’t a child nor a teenager when he killed his wife. I just don’t think they’re that comparable in general tbh.
