This is so true. I've been telling people from the time i watched the series that the true protagonist of GOT was Littlefinger as per the books. Others were just playing in his world.
To be fair, Littlefinger is a secret self-insert character for George RR Martin himself. Martin wrote a short story called "Meathouse Man" about a lonely empty guy who can't find a meaningful connection with any women who then resorted himself into hedonism and necrophiliac, then made himself rich and powerful by exploiting other people with a firm belief that "love is a lie". This story was inspired by Martin's real life story when he was dumped by his ex-girlfriend so one can say his incel and women-hating mentality seeps through in his works. The main character of Meathouse Man would later become the characters of Littlefinger and Tyrion Lannister in ASOIAF. So yeah, it's understandable why these two are his protagonists and why his story is so nihilistic, full of corruption, death and destruction and extreme cases of sexual assault.
ok but can we talk about how both these dudes started as literal nobodies and ended up being some of the most powerful characters?? CHAOS IS THE ONLY REALITY.
Pretty Meh speech by baelish. Reminds me of tywins reaponse to him "You say that as if you were the first man alive to think it... Yes, a crisis is an opportunity. What other "brilliant" insights have you brought me today?"
Do you think Oz Cobb got inspired by Littlefinger?
I didnt see that coming...
No
maybe
More like Tony Soprano
nobody, literally nobody: penguin and littlefinger: chaos is not a pit, it's a parkour of course 🏃♂️
I can definitely see the parallels between Penguin and Littlefinger. Nice comparison and video.

i would agree with this up til season 4. cause after that littlefingers entire character gets thrown out a window
Love your content. Keep'em coming :)
AMAZING video! Much thanks 🎉🎉🎉🎉
I think you could make the same case for Mackinus from Gladiator 2 being a character of the same trope
A far more interesting character is roose bolton. Especially the one from the books. You should analyse him next
It's not ladder, it's LADDAH!
Vera from Mr Robot has similarities to them as well…

And all of this in front of Arya. Perhaps Littlefinger thought that Bran had heard this from her.
Except Oz didn’t get got
neither did Littlefinger. too bad the show got canceled after season 4 😔
Litle finger got caught by sll knowing time travelling magic man. Lazy ass writing
