Many of these series are using Asian-sounding names for their villains (yuzhaan vong) which is sus. As a teenager I read the libertarian Wizard’s First Rule / Ayn Rand fan fiction series and by the end of it the villain had some kind of Asian name, I can’t remember.
I’m watching/reading Game of Thrones for the first time and think the politics are actually mostly pretty good but GRRM is still a lib. I’ve noticed that Jews/Roma don’t exist in any form in his alternative medieval Europe, at least so far. Also, white saviorism, and nearly all the main characters are nobles, which for me undermines GRRM’s supposed critique of feudalism. He was just on Colbert a few weeks ago saying he wishes he had a dragon so he could attack Moscow.
