Game of Thrones is a narrative created solely to capture and manipulate the attention of the viewer, focusing on the shocking and unexpected violations of norms.

That’s not American politics. That’s American media.

Except the part where Samwell Tarly suggests a democracy and everyone laughs at the idea. That part was relevant.
