That seems even worse somehow, at least if hes just power hungry that makes sense in this dumb setup they did, but if he genuinely believes in what hes talking about wouldnt he just shape the movement to allow sympathetic benders to be part of it?
Hate when you can just obviously detect the hands of the authors making their characters do dumb shit and not think properly so that their intended story works no matter what.
The equalist plotline is so fucking bad, not only is the non-benders presented as not seriously disadvantaged but their entire movement is just a corrupt bender trying to gain power by exploiting them.
And then all our girlboss has to do to collapse the movement is reveal the leaders status as a bender, because clearly the movement is not based in real structural and material inequality and disadvantages, they just hate all benders equally because of resentments. Just turns into libshit both sidesing where they are presented as essentially non-bender supremacists, realistically it shouldnt fucking matter if benders are part of the movement, particularly not if they are being violently repressed and would get a lot of help from people whos bodies are weapons.
Isn't it a straight up lie also? Like Amon is actually a bender himself just doing shit for power and tricking the gullible moronic commoners?
Been hearing people rave about how House of the Dragon is all about how playing around with dragons is foolish shit and sooner or later they will fuck you over and how they're a big nuke analogy etc, seems GRRM should watch it.

The RCM absolutely are privy to some kind of revolutionary plans, the esprit the corps check during the ending is pretty unambigous with them making a list of officers that will "side with the people". It's possible that the Union plans to make a literally hostile takeover of the harbor is in fact another cover story told to you and that's just one step in "The Return", IMO seems like a plausible conclusion depending on how many connections the Claires have been making. Theres also a check that makes Klaasje talk about having heard of it approaching apparently.

Every "anti-woke" streamer influencer guy like haz, maupin(before the recent allegations, those are good that they are acknowledged), vaush too, fucking all of these assholes that spend all their time just trying to make people angry only to either take an infuriating high ground stance out of it, or try and drag people down into the mud and get them even more angry by just saying bigoted shit.
It's like if that one scene from The Usual Suspects was a cumtown bit.

This is all also almost entirely a fucking lie when it comes to how he portrays himself as some kinda clueless Dante figure being lead through this weird sexual landscape, he's been trying to normalize child porn for literally 10+ years including running several magazines about publishing softcore child porn with pictures of actual children, he has absolutely jerked off to children before and did not just suddenly discover he has a dick in his pants in the course of running this joke of a study.
Tbh Sirona Ryan seems like a decent name all things considered, Sirona apparently has a buncha mythological shit behind it so that's on brand for transfem names.
Totally get why people are clowning on it though, pretty funny.
