Winterfell is Burning Posted August 28, 2014 Share Posted August 28, 2014 Surely, Barristan talks about how glorious was the Kingsguard and how he served honorably his kings, but they were all WHITE knights and WHITE kings! And he even wore a WHITE cloak! He refuses to even STAND side by side with the black man. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lady Blizzardborn Posted August 28, 2014 Share Posted August 28, 2014 And he calls himself Whitebeard, which is an anagram of Whitebread. Which goes back to Hot Pie. Is he part of this racist elite too? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Minsc Posted August 28, 2014 Share Posted August 28, 2014 Lets look at some other examples. As Strong Belwas is is readying to face the Meerenese champion, Barristan notes that "a chivalrous man would dismount." Pah, maybe in your precious Westeros would such a stupid notion of chivalry exist, but this is the east Barristan, the sun doesn't set here, it rises, and if men want to fight on horseback they bloody well will, thank you very much. One has to love his hypocrisy of believing that Pah should dismount to make the fight fairer, yet when he fights the unarmed Khrazz he refuses to take off his armor. Just another example of him looking for any reason to criticize foreigners. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kienn Posted August 28, 2014 Share Posted August 28, 2014 We see it in large parts during a Dance with Dragons, when he refuses time and time again to honour Hizdar as he should be honoured, calling him by the Westerosi custom of "your Grace" instead of the proper title of "your magnificence." This of course is only a minor quibble leading towards the greater whole. Why don't you properly honor Hizdahr by spelling his name properly? I guess you're a disgusting bigot too... /s Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NorthernXY Posted August 28, 2014 Share Posted August 28, 2014 Of course, the most notable version is when Dany looks at the Unsullied, Barristan shows nothing but distaste for them and how they are created, *tap tap tap* questioning and disbelieving their lack of fear, saying they aren't real men, noting that they have no valor and don't fight for any cause other than that of who owns them. Yeah, Jorah was the one stating Dany can give them a better life not being viewed as cattle and won't rape and pillage like most armies. Fighting for a cause doesn't mean much, Selmy fought for the cause to let Aerys murder anybody he wanted to. Great cause their Selmy. "Aw... Barristan the bold. One of the finest Knights alive!" *Joins Dany's team* "What a wicked scumbag. Who'sever idea it was to knight him should get their hand burnt off!!!!" Just because he chose Dany over Stannis doesn't make him the devil. Ned cursed Barristan in the black cells before Selmy was dismissed. I generally side with Ned when it comes to people, though not when it comes to playing the game of thrones. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not surprising that Barristan wanted to get rid of him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Game Of Thrones Posted August 28, 2014 Share Posted August 28, 2014 Not nearly as bad as trying to trick one into becoming an atheist. Trust me, it's messy.Let's stop with the religion comments or we'll get locked. And no, you don't "trick" people into becoming an atheist. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
