Is that really all you got? Throwing the word "qualifiers" around like it somehow makes your point? Or disproves everyone else's point who disagrees with you?

Pretty fucking weak.

Go to bed, sweetheart, let the grown folk talk now.

I'm still waiting for you to prove your point.

(frozen comment)

Honey. Dear. Sweetie. Any point that gets proved to you will instantly fly a million miles over your precious, little head.

But here's something to consider. It might require a bit of research on your part (you're lazy, so I don't expect much) but go check any GoT focused media, forum or article, before Tormund started making heart-eyes at Brienne. You'll notice he's barely mentioned, if at all, in recaps or GoT threads. Most people didn't even know his fucking name.

After his crush on Brienne was shown? Tormund's popularity exploded. He became a fan darling overnight because he stanned one of the series's biggest, most popular characters ever.

But like I said: you are lazy. I'm sure you'll find a way to stick your fingers in your ears and la-la-la like the child you are.

Pity.

How's this for research?

You're right, nobody cared about Tormund until he made googly eyes at Brienne.

Idiot.

Wow. So. Much. Content.

I am overwhelmed.

Sweetheart.

(frozen comment)

[(Anonymous)]

You were saying people didn't care about his character before Brienne.

You were wrong.

Just because he wasn't one of the main characters like Tyrion or Dany doesn't mean people didn't like him.

(frozen comment)

[(Anonymous)]

Some people cared about Thoros too. So what? A few fans posting Tormund
gif-sets on Twitter doesn't mean he was beloved or popular. Not way he became beloved and popular when he started crushing on Brienne.

(frozen comment)

[(Anonymous)]

Now you're being obtuse. He was an important character for three seasons before he met Brienne, and he was never reviled for his atrocities. Brienne made him more popular, but people always liked him.

(frozen comment)

[(Anonymous)]

Oooo, I'm obtuse now!

Looks like someone just finished watching Shawshank Redemption.

Well, you're so a-cute believing Tormund holds any importance outside his relationships to big dogs like Jon Snow and Brienne of Tarth.

Tormund is a good character, but no matter how much you need him to be as important as Daenerys so you can equate her roasting upwards to a half million people alive to Tormund's penny ante participation in raids on small villages:

It's. Not. Ever. Going. To. Be. True.

(frozen comment)

[(Anonymous)]

Is that why everyone loved Ramsay Bolton? Sure he did horrific atrocities, but he was funny and his only importance was his relationships with Theon and Sansa so his crimes don't really matter.

(frozen comment)

[(Anonymous)]

Everyone loved Ramsay Bolton?

Objection!

Facts not in evidence!

Loved to hate, maybe.

And, yes, Ramsay's crimes were child's play compared to Daenerys cooking countless babies in their own fat.

(frozen comment)

[(Anonymous)]

Whooosh.

Using your logic, if people were willing to overlook Tormund's crimes because he wasn't a big character then Ramsay should have been just as beloved.

(frozen comment)

[(Anonymous)]

Logic and you don't go together, sweetheart.

And don't use, "Whoosh," like you actually had a point that could go over anyone's head. Because we both know you're throwing shit at the wall hoping you'll magically say something rational or coherent. Unfortunately, you stan a mass murderer, so there's no way you'll do either.

(frozen comment)

[(Anonymous)]

You were acting like I was genuinely saying Ramsay was beloved, so yes the point went over your head. :)

(frozen comment)

[(Anonymous)]

Hence, me saying you're throwing shit at the wall hoping something, anything will stick.

It's obvious you've given up any hope of making sense, so you're hoping your sly wit (cough, ahem) will win the day. Thing is, you lost the second you tried to defend a genocidal maniac. That, and you have no wit.

(frozen comment)

[(Anonymous)]

I can't help it if your own logic (people don't care about Tormund killing innocent people because he's not as big as Dany, but they do care about Ramsay doing it because reason) doesn't hold up.

(frozen comment)

[(Anonymous)]

People don't care. They just don't. Accept it.

You can whine about how unfair it is and how hypocritical it is, but: No One Cares About Tormund's Crimes. Because he doesn't matter, understand? It's hard, I know, but think about it.

People care about the characters who matter to the over-all narrative. The characters whose very existence moves the world. That's Jon Snow. That's Sansa and Arya Stark. And that's Daenerys Targaryen, The Motherfuckin' Queen of Dragons.

And when a character burns babies to death? It kind of makes less genocidal actions not as horrific, and much easier to swallow. Simply put, it's about context, sweetie. And it's about scale.

(frozen comment)

[(Anonymous)]

Then why do they care about Ramsay's crimes?

(frozen comment)

[(Anonymous)]

Because his crimes affected important characters everyone cared about, and that made Ramsay relevant.

Without that he's a nobody and nobody cares what happens to him; he's just another over-the-top violent sociopath in Westeros, of which there are thousands.

Shit, people don't even care about Ramsay's other victims!

It's no coincidence no one mentions Ramsay feeding his step-mother and his newborn brother to the dogs. Or the scores of people Ramsay flayed alive. Because no one cares about those people. Even Osha's death was barely a blip in fandom. To most fans, it's all about Ramsay raping Sansa and mutilating Theon. It's all about what he's doing to torture their faves today.

But people care about Daenerys. What's done to her and what she does, matters. She lifts her eyebrow entire fucking nations fall. She that bitch, okay? And if you are a fan who's been invested in her and her journey, then her burning babies to death is going to rock your fucking world. It's going to affect your relationship to the whole series.

Tormund isn't going to bring that response. Ramsay's not going to unless it's related to main characters. Because by themselves:

They Don't Matter.

Daenerys does.

(frozen comment)

[(Anonymous)]

So if Ramsay had flayed people and sicced dogs on his stepmother and newborn brother, but hadn't hurt Theon (who murdered two children himself) and Sansa, people would stan him like they did Tormund?

And what about Euron Greyjoy? Why wasn't he stanned for like Tormund was, then? He was funny and he didn't hurt any important characters until his fight with Jaime in the finale.

(frozen comment)

[(Anonymous)]

Yes. They were starting to stan and ship him with Theon. Ramsay's early Theon torture was at acceptable levels, I guess. Then the emasculation/castration happened and that all but killed the ship--for the most part. I've seen (Not Read!) the post mutilation Theon/Ramsay fics.

After that he became the bad guy everyone couldn't wait to see killed as deliciously as possible.

Euron Greyjoy?

Dafuq you bringing up Euron Greyjoy for? Euron Greyjoy was barely ever a fucking character to begin with. How many goalposts you gonna keep pushing back?

(frozen comment)

[(Anonymous)]

People liked Ramsay as a bad guy, they didn't stan him like they did Tormund. And the people who shipped him with Theon have been shipping them since the books, it's not like they didn't know how bad he was.

And you're the one who keeps moving the goalposts.

You say people who like Tormund overlooked his crimes because he wasn't a big character.

When you're asked why Ramsay didn't get the same treatment you say it's because he hurt the big characters.

Then when you're asked why Euron didn't get the same treatment, you say he doesn't count because he isn't a big character, which is the same argument you've used to justify Tormund's popularity. So which is it?

And while we're at it, both Tyrion and Theon are rapists in the books (in addition to Theon's child murder), and Tyrion strangled Shae while she was defenseless and pleading with him. People still like their characters. Your original argument was "People still support Dany because feminism lol" like people haven't forgiven or overlooked other characters doing horrible things when they're fans.

(frozen comment)

[(Anonymous)]

You little scamp!

We were always talking about the show's versions of the characters, and you know it.

Try again.

(frozen comment)

[(Anonymous)]

Theon still murdered two children in the show.

And you still haven't answered why it's different for Euron and Tormund with how only the latter's crimes are overlooked.

(frozen comment)

[(Anonymous)]

First, or is it again? Nobody cares about Euron. Guy kills a dragon and the most fandom can muster in response is a yawn.

Secondly, Tormund's crimes are easy to overlook because he only hurt people no one cares about, and a lot of it was implied and happened off screen.

And then there's his crush on fandom's darlings: Jon Snow (we all know it's true) and Brienne. Fandom will ignore a lot of shit if the fan service is tight.

I don't get how any of this is so hard for you to understand? You seem to have zero common sense, and you act like you don't now how fandom works. I was kidding before, but are you really a kid?

Your lack of fandom experience might explain why you're so out of touch and confused.
