The Targaryens Did Not:

massacre a whole race or group of ethnically different people based on their ethnicity or race: they never “targeted the Westerosi for simply being Westori or belonging to a specific group of people or religion” NOR “kill in mass specific people such as Northerners or the Dornish people. So, they didn't commit genocide either”

destroy religious sites or religious totems (weirwood trees)

force Westerosi lords nor peasants to adopt Valyrian cultural practices or habits. they didn’t “beat, tortured and killed the people they conquered for continuing to practice their culture rather than adopting Valyrian customs”

force Westerosi lords to discontinue their own cultural practices and religions, forgoe their house words, etc. just because they felt that Valyrian culture needed to be spread, they didn’t “conquer in the name of their Valyrian ancestry or on the name of Old Valyria” -- and those that they did were actually better to have gone or legally abolished or welcomed by Westerosi to be abolished/outlawed: Ironborn raving/reaping AND right of the first night

“plunder resources or money from the conquered people and land to make themselves, Valyrian descendants, more powerful and wealthy to have dominion and subjugate the conquered people”

take and distribute lands previously belonging to the Westerosi lords to other Valyrians (which actually belonged to the Children of the Forest and the giants before the First Men arrived) and leave the Westerosi lords scraps of land to live off of

“force their bloodline onto the people they conquered in order to gain dominance of the conquered people”--Rhaenys the Conqueror (as I’ve come to call her) arranged marriages and there was never a real protest because these lords still wanted influence--if anything, the intermarriages made them reassured that they would have influence and a guarantee of security under the Targs because their children had bloodties and a stake in the Targs......just as ancient and medieval nobles have always done before actual race-based colonialism ever existed in real life

And the Direct Quote:

As I have always said, the Targaryens are NOT colonizers. The Targaryens are conquerors yes, but they did not colonize nor did they commit genocide. And this comes from me an indigenous woc whose people and country have suffered and continue to suffer from actual real life genocide and colonialism; not to mention that we, us, personally have generational trauma and history with actual colonialism and genocide still to this day. We know well what genocide and colonialism is and its negative impacts and consequences because we come from a people that suffered and still suffer from the actions of colonizers and those who commited genocide against us and our people.

But going back to House Targaryen, the Targaryens also never forced their bloodline onto the people they conquered in order to gain dominance of the conquered people. On the contrary, they bolstered marriages between the different kingdoms and their own house to stop the squabbling that had been occurring between the different kingdoms before the conquest.

The Targaryens also never beat, tortured and killed the people they conquered for continuing to practice their culture rather than adopting Valyrian customs. The Targaryens, most notably Dany, actually adapted to the culture of the Seven Kingdoms and the people they have interacted with. If anything, Westeros were the intolerant ones concerning the Targaryens practices - most notably incestious marriages. As a whole, the Targaryens respected and let the Kingdoms continue mostly as they were with their own beliefs and culture.

The Targaryens didn't plunder resources or money from the conquered people and land to make themselves, Valyrian descendants, more powerful and wealthy to have dominion and subjugate the conquered people. The Targaryens also didn't conquer in the name of their Valyrian ancestry or on the name of Old Valyria. They didn't conquer to further extend their own Valyrian power or threshold or create a New Valyria. The conquered people still held their culture, titles and lands.

The Targaryens also never targeted the Westori for simply being Westori or belonging to a specific group of people or religion. The Targaryens didn't kill in mass specific people such as Northerners or the Dornish people. So, they didn't commit genocide either.

Honestly, it's not that hard to understand the difference between conquest, colonialism and genocide if antis actually paid attention to and actually cared about what poc had to say about genocide and colonialism considering we have a long history with real-life genocide and colonialism to this day.

listen. i'm an aemond fan. however the bit in the trailer where he's talking about whether daemon (warrior who successfully fought and won a long-term military campaign before aemond was even BORN) dares to face him when he himself has been in zero (0) battles and killed one (1) person completely by accident really did make me laugh. buddy i hate to break it to you but you are absolutely not prepared for what's about to go down.
