Yeah, it kinda did look that way, like you had some lines that you could spin to support your view and was just ignoring the rest. It also appeared dismissive to just say that whenever a character's assessment of Jon didn't match your reading to say that they just "didn't understand him."
If I wanted to hit below the belt I might even point out that maybe there's a reason that the movie didn't portray him that way.
But don't worry, we're all guilty of stuff like this, and I really did appreciate the debate and discussion and really liked meeting you.
You're obviously a really smart and well read person and this has been really cool. :) I like getting my teeth into literature.
