We certainly don't

It's at least kind of a steelman. When people like Hasan say the US deserved 9/11, do you really think they are referring to US support for Egypt rather than back conflating things like the drone campaign and the Iraq war?

People love dunking on the GRRM Aragorn tax policy question; but the quote is really about the end of history, not Robert's fiscal policy. Aragorn's tax policy, according to George, is putting in Littlefinger as Master of Coin

This is because urban republicans cheer on and validate this kind of shit. Meanwhile, our side gets really precious about what can only be described as 'smol bean rurals' (pic unrelated)

I don't think this is especially pretentious or vacuous? It's a pretty anodyne take that the political themes expressed in the prequels are much more interesting than the haphazard rebel adventure vibes of the OT.

Lincoln's Gettysburg Address comes to mind when I think of Bakhmut. 160 years later, the same sacrifices are being made in the service of liberty.
