You are not given power. You must take it.

Along this line. It's better to be feared than loved.

I define better by the way others treat me

I hate to quote that nut job but David miscavige but his dad was on Joe Rogan podcast and said that the motto he learned from that other nut Hubbard was that "power is not given or earned it is" assumed". I thought that was profound in a way

Non-fiction example: the way David Miscavage seized control of Scientology when L. Ron Hubbard died.

If you seize power and you aren't Ned Stark though, the kingdom is in trouble.

I remember a wise man once said: Stand among the ashes of 1000 people and ask them if honor matters. The silence is your answer.

Ain't nobody out there giving thrones away and patting people's backs "because you deserve it"

Gotta chop a few heads off and be ruthless for the throne.

The ball has to be in someone's court.

This is my second comment on this post. After having read the comments criticizing OP, I have to say what I have to say: Ned Stark is indeed a fictional character and I personally disapprove of the rule that prohibits members to discuss certain behaviors by them. They can be used to prove a fact, for literature is inspired by reality. There's much analysis to be done Redpill wise (specially in books) if our community allowed it; OP has proved this. Literature has many different aspects that benefit all mankind. And finally, friends, members of the community, what is happening to you? We men are at war with feminists, SJWs, transsexuals, etc. etc. and you come here and fight each other, insult each other instead of helping each other?

This definitely breaks the examples from fiction rule. It isn’t a commentary about what GOT shows about our society or the Bible imparting some ancient wisdom. It’s taking something that happened in a fictional story and using it as life advice.

So when plates are beginning to drift this sub says let them go if they aren't choosing to be with you, but then this post makes it sound like you should fight for them to stay with you, sounds contradictory unless I'm interpreting this wrong?

Are you literally using a fictional tv series to evidence sociodynamics?

Women are like an elemental force. Their hypergamous drive is amoral. It's like a surfer who gets mad at the waves when the wave sends them crashing beneath the water. You either learn how to ride the waves yourself, or someone else will. The wave won't change just so you can succeed

Love it. I would say "feminity" and not "women". I think we all have this part in us.

Good sexual strategy tie in. But let's not ignore the forest for the trees when it comes to this post.
