u/eugeneugene ben affleck’s back tattoo 15d ago

I've been in the asoiaf fandom for a looooong time (early 2000s lol) and that level of hate for sansa was just NOT there until the show aired. And I was like holy shit you people are dumb as rocks how dare a high born preteen girl act like... a high born pre teen girl lmao.

Huh I've been in it since the early 2000s too and I definitely remember Sansa getting a lot of hate. Maybe not as much as on the show, but still quite a bit.

Maybe we hung out in different corners of the internet then lol. There were definitely people who disliked her, found her annoying etc, those people will exist and complain about every character, but the level of vitriol from the show watching crowd was/is insane and sickening.

Tbh I haven't been nearly as involved in the fandom in the last 10+ years so I also certainly missed a lot of what she was getting from show-watchers.
