Which is hilarious, because isn't it kind of the point that every single character is problematic?

I think there's "problematic" as in "this character is an awful who does awful things" and then there's "problematic" as in "the way this character is written underlies/promotes some kind of bigotry or other social problem", and I don't think the first use of that word is actually correct. Characters in GoT are supposed to be assholes. (Not that none of them are problematic, but it's possible to write a bigoted or otherwise awful character in a way that is not problematic)

Pretty much this. For example, Cersei is a complete bitch. But I wouldn't say her character is problematic.

For example, Book of the New Sun, where the protagonist is supposed to be a monster, vs. Lovecraft or Burroughs who have significant problems with implicit racism.
