Its not about the incest per se, but how it fits into the different political situations or tells us more about characters.
In this case, it shows is how weak Mormont’s leadership is. His tolerance of Craster’s incestuous fiefdom erodes confidence in his leadership, strengthens the white walkers, and ultimately leads to his death.
For the Targaryens, incest was a way to preserve the power of their blood and maintain control of the monarchy, but made them susceptible to madness and led to their downfall.
For Cersei and Jaime, since they are twins, their relationship is a manifestation of their mutual narcissism.

I don't feel the need to explore the issue of incest, if thats your thing you do you, but I don't need to know.

Sometimes you need to feel uncomfortable to explore certain issues. GRRM was also certainly inspired by real “sexual weirdness” that occurred through history.

I don't know if that's a bigger insult to RoP or GoT.

The "old bear" was at the wall before Jorah married his expensive second wife.

Hela kills me sometimes. The Nights Watch is “kinda broken”, a literal civil war broke out.

Little fun fact that comes a little late. It's never actually stated in the show but Lord Commander Mormont the leader of the Night's Watch is Ser Jorah Mormont's (Daenerys' closest advisor) father.
Jorah was banished for selling slaves and his father joined the Night's Watch because of the shame.
This episode was brutal to Theon, just as he admitted that the Starks were his real family he was thrown back into Hell.
That was an awesome reaction ladies!💜

This is one of my favorite episodes of the series and definitely my favorite parts of the books. I'm definitely Team-Daenerys.

i love the show, but when those scenes come up i kind of cringe knowing an old man was writing those scenes 🤣

Daenyrs getting the Unsullied is the best scene in the whole show, in my opinion

I tried to get into Game of Thrones but all the sexual weirdness is just offputting, its sort of like Rings of Power but with incest.
