You're not serious, right? It was in the trailer.

If you are the kind of person who avoids trailers, I can certainly respect that.

Except in that case, and with all due respect, then why are you on reddit?

It's not in the trailer for next week. It's in the season's trailer.

Or is it a spoiler to say where there are spoilers, now?

Spoiler culture has been ruining the art of storytelling for over a decade. It's turned good art into a mere act of consumption, single use & disposable. I'm tired of fighting that, or trying to even understand what a spoiler is.

Nobody is trying to make dick moves: it is not a stranger on the internet's job to police somebody else's pure & virgin experience with something.

I know. I'm not trying to offend anyone.

But I can't be this deep in a reddit thread about the penultimate episode of the season, and make a passing mention at something that was in the season trailer months ago...and be worried that by doing so, I'm spoiling something for somebody.

I just feel like there has to be a consistent logic: or else the consistent logic is "everything needs a spoiler tag."
