We Do Not Kneel

It would very interesting to see how many would choose not to kneel when being escorted to the pyre on which they would be burnt alive.

Eh, that wouldn't be so bad.

I was thinking that it would be more or the lines of being flayed alive for a couple of hours, then having my intestines pulled out of my body and being strangled to death with them.

Of course I would take Jon Snow's advice and allow the army of the north to be used as fodder in a war south of wall. Then after we crush the Boltons and secure the north, we'll turn on Stannis Baratheon and make him pay for putting us in that position in the first place.

All followers of the "Lord of Light" will be fed to the cannibals.

Of course I'd kneel.

This leader's navy got fucked by wildfire. I'm thinking I can do the same to his army. Come at me Stannis you prick.

Eh, better than sticking around for the White Walkers.

I would kneel to save my people and allow them to make their own choice.

I would not kneel. My people would have already devoted their lives to my revolution/cause. I would become a martyr and further the cause.

Somebody needs to have their HBO cut off.

But who else will he talk to about his thoughts about GoT?

We're his best friends :)

Let him write it down in a ledger or something.

I'd fucking kneel every day. Shit, if some one came up to me and said "If you don't kneel in front of me I'll mildly inconvenience you for like a week" I'd fucking kneel. Life's too short. My people might follow me, they might not, If I'm leading them they probably know what I think about needlessly throwing their lives away to preserve something as cheap as honour.

by **Torisakia** » Sat Apr 18, 2015 4:14 pm

This is implying that I have the skills necessary to lead a group. Fact is, I'd probably die in battle. So neither kneel or die.

Kneel, and when they let me go, we just restart the uprising. Hell, when they give us guns to fight as front-line infantry, we just use those guns to kill the dictatorship government.

Finally, another one.

The amount people with a sensible mind in this place is depressingly low.

Game-Of-Thrones-martyr complexes aplenty.

Yeah, and if you refuse to kneel, you and the other high ranking revolutionaries will be executed. The lower ranked ones that will be pardoned will probably too much be scared and watched from now on to ever seriously challenge the government. The "honorable" choice in this situation screws over the Revolution you're trying to lead.

What if you can't kneel because you don't have any legs?

by **Ifreann** » Sat Apr 18, 2015 4:33 pm

Mance should have knelt. Better alive in Westeros than dead in the Land of Always Winter.

I would kneel, walk out and then when the government arms the revolutionaries with their arms to fight this foreign war I would rise up again - maybe even talk to this foreign leader and wage unified fronted war; after all words are nothing but wind.

Yeah, because they would totally give their enemies the same grade weapons. And the foreign power will obviously be a good force and allow you to create your state. It just doesn't work that easily, because dictators, for the most part, aren't idiots.

They want the army to lead the charge against the foreign enemy, obviously the dictator won't arm them with pitchforks. Its irrelevant what kind of force the foreign power is, there is a common enemy to be fought - we split the spoils of war and sort out disagreements after overthrowing the dictator with second war if that is what it takes. The revolutionaries will be in better place with weapons and boosted moral of victory against the dictator and the country will have one leader to unite forces behind; its not a loose either way.

We Do Not Kneel

Kneel and live?
