They didn't. Neither show Dany nor book Dany would ever murder tens of thousands of people because she lost her temper or heard bells ring or some shit. There was nothing to set up Dany as a mass murdering psychopath. Nothing.

Knowing, theorizing, predicting etc about Dany going dark in the books is not the same as saying, with all certainty, that she will commit mass murder. I think that those are two different roads. It's putting "war makes monsters of us all" alongside pure sadism/psychopathy.

Arya has been saying that she's going to "kill the Queen" since last season iirc, not saying Cersei's name explecetly. If she ends up killing Dany we know that that's going to be their justification. "It was foreshadowed".

Guys, we can still root for that that ASOIAF anime adaptation in ten years from now.

Making a well, reasonable case against feudalism is not the same as talking about madness nor associating with making executions and the like in times of war and according to their laws, however horrible that might look to us.

Acts of violence, murder, rape and the like are not exclusively done by people who are "mad". That's naive. Many are not that different from you or me. "Human. All too human".

Narcissism is not a psychological disorder though...

Last class my teacher used classic psychoanalisis to explain Dany's state of mind and the reason of her downfall last episode. It was fun. Made me see it from a different perspective. Still bad writing though.

lol, I know I wasn't the only one who saw this as pure empty arrogance motivated by despair. Big talk, no more.

And Jon Snow hanged a boy "younger than Bran", his words, who was emotionally manipulated by grown adults. Do we call him mad? He's a Targ too, right?

People justifying and even praising the deaths of the people of KL because the walk of shame, Ned's execution and so on are the same that say "Thanos did nothing wrong" with a straight face. And they are dangerous.
