Briefly last year, for his "wanted the pretty white people to ride off into the sunset together" line.

Which was said in reference to the game of thrones ending and people being upset about it. His allusion is that people were upset because all they wanted to see was a happy ending with the white people "riding off".....

Which is apocalyptically dumb because:

A. That's not why people where upset.

B. 'White people riding off into the sunset' is in fact the ending we got: the main poc female character gets deheadified. The not made up of white people calvary force and it's followers dies, returns, disappeares, returns again, and is excluded from any final explanation as to what the fuck they are doing now. The not white dudes infantry says 'fuck it' and leaves.

So we're left with: white girl that literally sails off into the sunset. Her older white sister who is now a Queen. Their brother cousin uncle whateverIforget who gets not executed for regicide and is told "whatevs, go live north with all these white folk". Their other brother turned white handicapped god emperor now forever-king....

...the white guy who bailed on school is now Grand Maester, the white guy that can't count or read is the Master of Coin, the white guy that learned to read last week is now Master of Ships, that big white chick is there too for reasons....and Dinklage's very own character is there too, as the number 2 ruling position.

Oh and his whole anti-live action Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs schtick

He does seem to be pulling up the ladder behind him after becoming successful. I'm pretty sure there are less little people in good acting roles today than there were in the 1980s. Willow is like the only one in quite a long time that wasn't Dinklage, and that's only because it was a sequel of something made decades ago.
