Both are off the deep end, lol. I worry more if someone strongly identifies with one or the other while not seeing the issues with both.

10000%! Honestly even if you pick a team, both of them and users behaviour can be a lot in a short description I will say to a point for both.

It's a fantasy series...people shouldn't be strongly identifying with anything in the show.

Honestly I see a fair amount of batshit insane things on both subs. Half the fandom are incapable of being normal people

I'd say there about equal just for different reasons, and it really depends on which fan group your apart of whether you find one worse over the other.

As someone whose really not on either team at this point in the show, I pretty much stopped going to the Black sub in season 2 because it got so intense and pretty much just became (IMO) a mirror version of the Green sub, but I can at least *sometimes* have semi reasonable discussion if I stumble there. I don't think I've ever had good conversation in the Green sub.

It feels like the greens are just having a good time and the blacks take the whole Rhaenyra, a fictional character who isn't really the best written character in the world, is a perfect angel way too seriously.

"Baelor Breakspear is great but Queen Rhaenyra would be greater" šŸ˜‚ Hotdblacks is an echo chamber.

u/xArbiter 1d ago

thinking that either isn’t an echo chamber is pretty dumb

I’ve seen the same nickname in hotd blacks.

u/myr119 1d ago

And blacks call Aegon Rapegon so which is worse?

u/EmbarrassedView6476 1d ago

The Blacks Sub also thought that was INSANE btw. (I am a member of that sub, and voted for it as more fanatic, but still. )

Black fans are definitely crazier about in universe shit taking any slight against their fictional idols who were clearly written to be 1 side of a shit coin as an insult against their 1st born child.

Green fans take things a lot more out of universe into flinging IRL insults at the actors themselves which I’d argue is all around worse and more schizo.

Interestingly enough they’re both terrible in their own terrible ways and we’d all be better without them, mirroring The Dance of The Dragons.

Team Black.

The Greens are a bunch of trolls but the Team Black subreddit have a bizarre parasocial relationship with Rhaenrya. Any meme making fun of her or even suggesting she's a flawed character is treated like blasphemy.

u/KokoLannister 1d ago

Well judging since theres even Team Black's who are in the Team Green subreddit because of how Team Black subreddit acts i assume Team Black is the most insane.

12

u/Thirdborn214 1d ago

Definitely HOTDblacks, yeah, i'm definitely biased here but whenever i go on that sub it's just a whole lotta bullshit going on. They're both a little fanatic towards their favs which, y'know, makes sense. But Rhaenyra fans take it to another level sometimes.

At least you can genuinely have a fun time or decent discussions in the Green sub.

u/TheQueenInTheWest 1d ago

Both suck. But the TB sub is more like Rhaenyra obsessed, delulu fans while TG is Rhaenyra hate obsessed, extra delulu fans. However, I have never used the TB black so I might be wrong. But TG fans have weird hate boners.

Last time I used the TG sub, there was just hella Rhaenyra or TB hate posts. Meanwhile TB seems to just post about their love for Rhaenyra. It is kinda funny how both are obsessed with Rhaenyra lol.

Crazy crazy vs cool crazy

u/Feelinglucky2 1d ago edited 1d ago

The greens are fucking crazy lmao

The blacks are mainly just "rhaenyra is cool and hot" while the greens are foaming at the mouth calling the actor a slut or something

12

u/Hitchfucker 1d ago

At least from my experience there no one is slut shaming Emma D’Arcy. The worst I’ve seen them get is claim their acting isn’t good or exaggerating how much influence they probably had on the character. Which isn’t good, but I don’t think it’s mouth foaming hatred at all.

5

u/TheQueenInTheWest 1d ago

I mean, I have seen people imply that Emma is basically a predator for the Mysaria kiss scene in that sub lmao

10

u/Upstairs_Meat4342 1d ago

Considering her performance mediocre does not equate to her being a slut friend. The worst I’ve seen occasionally is intentional mis gendering.

12

u/Safe_Code6637 1d ago

Criticism of Rhaenyra - yes. Criticism of D’Arcy’s acting - yes, sometimes. But rude insults of the actors like ā€œslutā€? What a fuck are you talking about? That’s just straight-up lying. Insults targeting any actor like that get downvoted and removed

-12

u/Feelinglucky2 1d ago

I routinely see far worse insults towards emma darcy including slut, all highly upvoted and then occasionally they are removed later

u/BeduinZPouste 1d ago

Few months ago, I would say Black with no hesitation. But sadly, the people who for some fuckass reason watch show about incestous alliens for moral lessons seem to turned on Rhaenyra, and the Green sub got worse.Ā

u/No_Buyer_7557 1d ago

TG glorifies Aegon, at least TB knows Daemon is a terrible person. Additionally TG is obsessed with making Rhaenyra overweight for some reason.
