Robert’s Rebellion was not built on a fucking lie. It was the most justified thing in the series. Is it a lie that Aerys was burning half the country and the tensions finally snapped with the crown prince deciding to say “Fuck my duty, I’m going to do whatever I want, consequences be damned”?
And, like, saying RR was “built on a lie”…. how many other people’s actions does this completely invalidate? Did Jaime kill Aerys for nothing then?
D&D just don’t understand what Robert’s Rebellion was actually about.
