Though Tolkien didn’t intend it, LOTR often gets taught and discussed as an analogy for WWII—and to a degree it fits. Martin has made clear he believes Trump is a traitor who should be imprisoned, but no one would say he *intended* Fire & Blood as a cautionary tale about America. — PolitiTweet.org

I don’t want to stretch this further than it can go, but HOTD shows us a society on the brink of civil war. It’s hard not to see Reds and Blues in Greens and Blacks; the Greens are misogynistic, treacherous, dangerously ambitious, and don’t believe in their system of government. — PolitiTweet.org

That doesn’t change the fact that in many respects HOTD has a political echo in our times. So when Condal drains moral clarity from Martin’s narrative over and over again to inject happenstance—and in so doing betrays Martin’s characters—it feels triply problematic. And should. — PolitiTweet.org
