You know what's interesting? The show pretends that only Luke and Rhaenyra's feelings matter, but when Rhaenyra and Daemon make Rhaenys and Corlys think their son was killed (by them!), the show brushes it off as nothing, who cares, right? Corlys almost lost his life as well because he was grieving, he ran off to war, Rhaenys was heartbroken for years and no consequences, they just support Rhaenyra. Rhaenys herself wanted to burn all the Greens including Helaena who did nothing wrong ever, but it's treated as a cool and heroic moment for her, and again, no one brings it up. She ruined the Greens coronation and threatened them, but of course it's Aemond who's at fault for everything even though he only wanted to intimidate Luke (similar to Rhaenys actually) as his revenge for his eye, but both their dragons went rogue and it ended in tragedy.
Whoa! It’s not that deep. But let’s say it’s so, why would you absolve Leanor of any culpability for what his parents went through when he agreed to fake his death in exchange for his freedom. Yes, Rhaenyra and Daemon are partially responsible for hatching up the plan, but Leanor had agency and still does. He could come back still.

Accident? Yes, technically, but Aemond went after a younger smaller boy on a tiny dragon with the largest dragon. This action by itself makes him culpable.
Aemond did not plan to kill Luke, but we all know it wouldn’t have happened if he didn’t go after him with a dragon like Vhagar. It was inevitable that he would lose control of her, making her chase Luke like that. Him not actually planning to kill him is irrelevant by this point.

Had Viserys NOT named a successor, there would be no debate- the line of succession would pass to his son, Aegon. Those are the rules in westeros. However he DID name Rhaenyra his heir while he was alive. And that should be honored.
Viserys didn't know he'd still have sons after Aemma's death. However, he also never changed his mind throughout the remaining of his life. All of the conflict is the Hightower's fault.

Not even a question. Rhaenyra was who the king chose and is first born and is a better ruler. Deserves has nothing to do with it, but she fits that as well.
