"If the story ended with him kneeling, what's the point of dragging it on?"
I dunno. Ask the showrunners. They are the ones who came up with the whole Dany spends the whole season treating Jon like a servant and demanding he kneel plot.

I am a woman and a feminist so please don't throw red pill garbage at me. The issue is rich white men overcompensating for earlier seasons by going all man-hating. Ergo, Dany gets to be queen and Jon has to be her servant.

Oh good trolls with personal attacks… Blocking.

The show only allows women to be competent leaders. And c'mon, you know that Jon is going to end up kneeling and giving away any claim he has to Dany. This is 100% where the show ends up going. Why else do you think that there is a storyline about Dany being so obsessed with getting Jon to kneel?

Have you watched the current season? Because that is what it is. I haven't after reading about it in the spoilers/ leaks and just wanted to vent about how stupid the whole thing has become. It is all bad plotting and dumb fanservice. And yes, Jon will end up ceding his claim to Dany, kneeling, and being her "pet…

Because then we couldn't have a dumb, mindless action sequence.

It will get papered over and Jon will kneel and give up his claim. Count on it. It is very much a girlz rule, boys drool thing. They will never let Jon become king because of the man-hating thing in the show (and I am saying this as a feminist.)

No. The show papers over Dany's issues and makes every character including Jon her pets and servants. There is no way Jon rules because girls (namely Dany) are the only ones allowed to rule. Jon will just kneel and give up any claim he has. Take that to the bank.

Guys you know that that whole dumb annulment thing is going to amount to zip. Right? Because only Dany the Perfect gets to be queen. Perhaps Jon being the legitimate heir is important because he is some sort of pawn who Dany sacrifices to defeat the Night King or something. But you know that it won't matter…

Rhaegar is a complete dick and Lyanna isn't this much better.

I've read better stories written by fans for free than D&D's fanfiction.

C'mon, this is so a TV only plot and shows that the show has jumped the shark.

The Wight Hunt is one of the STUPIDEST PLOTS of all time. Discuss amongst yourself.

It is very obviously a queen/ servant relationship just based on the first two episodes and Dany yelling at him on the beach and basically commanding him to stay like he is her servant. So anyone should be able to see where that dynamic is headed.

That was why I was incredibly vague about it. It is just that it is pretty clear to me that the relationship is being set up as a queen/ servant dynamic based on the last two episodes. Jon is basically a replacement Daario.

Jon is not treating Dany as his servant or forcing her to kneel. He is just going with the perfectly reasonable request that the North remain free. I guess since I know where their relationship ends up at the end of the season and it ticks me off immensely, I do not like the dynamic heading up to that. I do view it…

I would have hated it regardless of the incest because of the relationship dynamics between them. I really do not like that Dany treats Jon so poorly like the help. The scene where she is yelling at him on the beach was especially off-putting. I get why their first meeting is tense but can they at least make it…

I have hated the Jon Dany dynamic since I read about it for over a year as I know where this is going. I could care less if they end up sleeping with each other and more about the dynamics of the relationship. It really is a queen-servant relationship rather than one of equals and Dany treats Jon very poorly. The…

The issue is that they don't think she is crazy and power hungry. She is a fierce feminist. C'mon. She deserves to rule because she is a woman. Get with it.

No one is Dany the Perfect's equal. All must kneel to her. C'mon you know where this is going.
