Cringe-Worthy: Ocasio-Cortez and Liz Warren Say 'Game of Thrones' Isn't Feminist Enough
PJ Media ^ | May 21, 2019 | Tyler O'Neil

Posted on 05/22/2019 6:06:28 AM PDT by C19fan

On Tuesday, 2020 Democrat Sen. Elizabeth Warren (D-Mass.) continued her cringe-inducing appeal to millennials with a tag-team video about Game of Thrones. Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-N.Y.) joined her, to bash the show for not being feminist enough. Their pop culture analysis mimics the gender pay gap complaints by focusing on equal outcomes rather than equal opportunity and character development.

Spoilers for Game of Thrones Season 8 Episode 6 below.

"I feel like we were getting so close to having this ending with just women running the world and then the last two episodes … it’s like, ‘Oh, they’re too emotional. The end.’ It’s like, ugh, this was written by men!" Ocasio-Cortez says, exasperated.

Feminism ruins everything. In their twisted world view wall women are saints and never become corrupt when yielding power.

If only the next sentence was "As if to prove her point, Drogon incinerated her".

Simple question. What is wrong with something being written by men? These leftist kooks don’t realize they are being sexist? I find their attack on freedom in literature nd artistic expression to maybe be more frightening than their attempt to censor political speech.

Also by the way, Game of Thrones was written by a man you have to be an idiot to be surprised by that fact watching the ending after 8 years.

They want to rule the world and it took them 8 years to realize they were watching a show that was in fact written by a man?

Trust your sons in the hands of a woman whose response to a man doing something is “ugh”?

It’s like, ugh, this was written by men!

Which might account for its popularity.

The irony is Game of Thrones was already highly “woke” and particularly - feminist. There were as many, or more, woman rulers / queens / warriors as men. Lesbianism was accepted among several of them.

Insane. The feminists and the Gays that run Hollywood ruined a terrific series. By the end of Season 6 women ran EVERY kingdom, as if.

This will be a trial balloon for lefty George R. R. Martin to end his book “Thrones” series on a more feminist note if he ever gets around to completing it.

What always cracks me up is 3 highly paid women and one guy whining on the news about inequality.

“...it’s like, ‘Oh, they’re too emotional. The end.’ ...”
