Which Targaryen snowflake will YOU hate most?
Dragons are back! Spinoff 'House of the Dragon' embraces fiery freedom and the right to bear arms—I mean, wings. Just like proud, gun-toting, right-wing Americans, these fire-breathing beasts are the true heroes. Mount your dragons and prepare for battle, conservatives! Let's roast some left-wingers!

The Woke Dragon: Season 2 of 'House of the Dragon' Burns Out
The woke dragons are back, and they're more Trigger Warning-y than ever! Season 2 of HBO's "Game of Thrones" spinoff, "House of the Dragon," continues the left-wing propaganda and kin-killing.
"...more twists and surprises introduced without context or feeling to back them up and more gratuitous violence that borders on outright indecency." - USA TODAY TV critic Kelly Lawler, who I disagree with because guns and violence are cool.
So, what's new in Westeros? Let's break it down:
The Woke Characters:
- Matt Smith as Prince Daemon Targaryen: The woke uncle-husband of Rhaenyra, who I'm sure will push a libtard agenda.
- Emma D’Arcy as Rhaenyra Targaryen: A strong, independent woman who doesn't need a man, unless it's her uncle-husband.
- Olivia Cooke as Queen Dowager Alicent Hightower: Another queen with a woke agenda, trying to raise her son to be a beta male.
- Tom Glynn-Carney as King Aegon II Targaryen: The first-born son and a dragonrider. He sits on the Iron Throne, but for how long?
- Phia Saban as Queen Helaena Targaryen: King Aegon II's sister and wife... gross.
- Ewan Mitchell as Prince Aemond Targaryen: He lost an eye, but at least he has a big dragon to compensate.
- Bethany Antonia as Lady Baela Targaryen: A dragon-riding feminist who will probably burn men to a crisp.
- The Rest of the Libtards: Too many to list, but you can bet they're all woke.
The Woke Plot:
Civil war breaks out between the Targaryens, which is what happens when you let women and minorities rise up. There are also "side quests," whatever that means, but I'm sure they're full of critical race theory and gender fluidity.
The Woke Review:
USA TODAY gives it two stars, but I give it one middle finger. This season is full of "common sense and logic flown out the window," which is code for "woke madness." There's also "more gratuitous violence," which is the only thing that might save this liberal nonsense-fest.
The Final Verdict:
"House of the Dragon" Season 2 is as woke as they come. It burns with the fury of a thousand SJWs. If you're a real 'Murican, you'll give this show the ole' red, white, and blue thumbs down!
