Yes, this so much. I will never understand why the fandom loves Jaime and hates Cersei. He's just as bad as she is, if not worse considering the whole murdering the man he had sworn an oath to serve thing, and yet he is loved while she is hated.

[(Anonymous)]

Have you read the books? I do have issues with how Jamie is presented as an increasingly decent character while Cersei is being turned into a power-hungry monster, but killing Aerys was morally justified.

[philstar22.livejournal.com]

I've read the first book. In my mind, it would have been morally justified for almost anyone else to do it. Aerys was a horrible king who needed to be killed. However, Jaime took an oath to serve him. Thus, Jaime being the one to kill him was not okay, particularly because he did it only to put himself ahead not because of any desire to do good.

I know that later on, GRRM tries to redeem Jaime but doesn't do the same with Cersei. That pisses me off, actually. She's the one who is more sympathetic, considering she is a woman in a society that treats women horribly and is stuck in a marriage with an abusive husband who flaunts his cheating in front of her.

I know you haven't read the other books, but no he didn't. And it didn't really put him ahead; people hate him for what he did.

I don't want to spoil you, but you'll find out more about Jaime's motivation for killing Aerys when you get to Book 3. Even without that revelation, though, I'd say trying to kill an innocent child is a far worse crime than breaking an oath to serve a murdering madman.

[philstar22.livejournal.com]

Okay, I can still believe that, but I still believe that it should have been someone else killing Aerys. Yes, there is that too. And Jaime is the one responsible for trying to murder Bran. He may have thought he was doing what Cersei wanted, but he was the one who did the act. So in that case, it makes him worse than her on that count too.

[amarra-jade.livejournal.com]

Oh, I didn't mean to say Cersei was responsible for Bran's fall, just that I don't think killing Aerys was the worst of Jaime's crimes.
