    People are surprised monarchs are rapists. Centuries of inbreeding do not produce healthy minds.

      Generational wealth and power, does not produce healthy minds.

      The inbreeding was a side effect of an already broken system.

      Immediately thought this, but there’s something worse about him (which makes sense, since Eddie is a character played by an actor who, I’m guessing, isn’t actually a vile and pathetic person).

      Thus suffers from the same problem “Adolescence” did; the writing and role is believable enough and the actor looks like they could be as despicable… but then you somehow don’t believe the actor to be that big of a cunt.

      Joffrey doesn’t suffer from that, Jack Gleeson is such a brilliant actor I never doubted he could be such a massive cunt. But I know he isn’t. But he made me believe it.

      Like Eddie and the kid in Adolescence both have too much humanity showing through.

      Keep in mind he is literally a child of the unprivileged commoners, so poking at his origins or genetics is not “punching up”. His mom is from a lower class family with drug and alcohol abuse problems, and she had him before meeting the prince.

      Just poke at his personality or actions. There’s plenty there.
