As a piece of propaganda, HOTD is far more clever than Rings of Power and the other stuff that just shoves woke crap down your throat.
You don't even know you've been propagandized. It just happens that the female characters are good and the male characters are bad. Things happen, amirite?
That's something that has kind of irks me about Critical Drinker and to a lesser extent EFAP as of late. They tend to dismiss the subtle propaganda with the excuse of "it's not that big of a deal" without recognizing that a series of "it's not that big of a deal"s is what got us here in the first place.
Not that I expect everyone to go full noticer and call out every little perceived instance of wokery but acknowledging that they are there only to tell everyone not to worry about is lame.

The thing is, they want to enjoy it. And I can understand that, because I have to admit that I enjoy it despite its flaws. Also, people see what they expect to see. So someone like Shadiversity views the bad stuff that women do as that they failed to present the sanitized view of women that they wanted to present. However, that may just be an artifact of the fact that he is a conservative, and simply does not see it the same was as a normie would.

For those of us who are fortified against us, it's not much of a worry. The effect it has on normies, on the other hand...

99% of wars in history were started by queens.
True. Edward II being a great example of that.
Well, Loras Tyrell has been stabbing him for years and he's not dead yet.
(RE: Eddie part II, it's probably a reference to the Braveheart movie)
Yes, the evidence is ambiguous. I'd say more likely than not though.
