(Vanity) Need talking points for Game of Thrones
none | none

Posted on 08/10/2017 10:59:19 AM PDT by mason-dixon

In two weeks, I'll be visiting my daughter & son-in-law. The son-in-law is a liberal. [We were visiting on election day and by 9:00 pm he assured me that "Silver's polling" guaranteed a Hillary win. I mentioned that Silver's voter turn-out model was wrong, then retreated to the guest room to await results. The next day's breakfast chat did not include any discussion of the election results! Son-in-law is such a know-it all that he would have pounded on us if Hillary had won.]

So we'll be there, at the new-house housewarming party that will included the Game of Thrones finale. I've seen maybe two or three partial episodes. I need some conversation lines about the show... especially ones that will twist the knife into liberals.

Is the midget character like the short politician with a tall, statuesque wife, Kusinich?

Appreciate your best observations.... but I just want political / g-rated ones (gotta keep up the straight-laced, conservative, grandma image.)

Why should we bother with the fiction of Game of Thrones, when we have the real life Game of Trump?

That’s brilliant. Someone coming out with a Trump videogame now could make billions. Totally serious.

“Soft” pornography is either sinful in and of itself, or the near occasion of sin, so I as a Catholic won’t watch.

Rape, murder, bloodshed, dragons. That’s all you need to know.

All I can say is - I’m sorry about your son-in-law.

I have relatives who are leftists, and while on a regular, daily level we can get along, I find that the basis of their leftist world outlook leads to personality traits, actions or habits I can’t accept.

Socialism uses "political means" to achieve the ends it desires. The free market uses "economic means" to do the same.

Politics is a cold war over who shall loot, and who shall do the looting. In the "game of politics," you win or get enslaved. In contrast, the free market tries to accommodate everyone, not just the majority.

"...The primitive exercise of the political means was, as we have seen, by conquest, confiscation, expropriation, and the introduction of a slave economy. The conqueror parcelled out the conquered territory among beneficiaries, who thenceforth satisfied their needs and desires by exploiting the labour of the enslaved inhabitants. The feudal State, and the merchant-State, wherever found, merely took over and developed successively the heritage of character, intention and apparatus of exploitation which the primitive State transmitted to them; they are in essence merely higher integrations of the primitive State."

"The State, then, whether primitive, feudal or, merchant, is the organization of the political means. "

How would you explain the plot of “Game of Thrones” in brief, from the beginning?

Go easy on Dennis. He has said nice things about Trump and NOTHING good about the DNC.

Good gawd. Your adversary will have your pants
down around your ankles within minutes. Try
discussing topics you know something about.

No they were force married at one point but it was not consummated because Tyrion is a good guy. They aren’t married not. She was married off again, to Ramsay, before the Battle of the Bastards, and that one was force consummated.
