> But ... they did not wore the cloth similar to Dothraki. Your ask was how and whether Dothraki and these historical cultures were similar. My response was that they are all horse-riding cultures that live on plains/steppes and raid settled peoples. Further, I submit that this lack of acknowledgement of this fact on the author's part defacto demonstrates cherry-picking. Your response could be that you disagree that this is evidence of cherry-picking, but instead you... recap the article. All this is beside the point. I acknowledge that the Dothraki are not historically accurate. That is the motte. The bailey is that the Dothraki are demeaning stereotypes. That is my original point against which you argue. I grant the motte. It's the bailey that has yet to be demonstrated.
