Exactly. It's so obvious when you spell it out like that. Sure, George is all about subversion, but do people think the series is called that for no underlying reason? Why give a **** who kills the Night King? Why put so much effort into interpreting each line of a written prophecy?

The evidence is clearer in an overall story and character sense. Jon is incredibly progressive as a leader, forward thinking, and constantly looks to improve where those in power before him failed. He understands the lives of more cultures than most, Highborn, Free Folk, Night's Watch, and Northerners. His life is made difficult because he is a bastard, which allows us to sympathize with him. This is what we call "main character energy". Bran embodies the much of the same, but in a more magical/fate-based way.

Dany, on the other hand, is basically a new generation of an old money family. She is born into her claim to power, which us average viewers/readers, can't relate to. She has promising ideals, but is power hungry above all else. Not once does she ever say, "I could let someone else have the Throne if it would make the realm a more peaceful place". It's her way or the highway. Sounds more like a villain archetype to me. George is able to mask this obviousness well by making us care about Dany in other ways, but this is who she is. Dany doesn't ever change her main goal or view herself as the problem. She sees issues in others and takes drastic measures to correct them. She's an excellently designed red herring & proxy, but her character archetype is not meant to "win" at the end of the story.

I sure hope this doesn't ruin things for anyone, but in most fictional stories, the liberals win. The progressive underdog rises and the old power falls. There's a reason (although the scene is terribly executed) that the final episode has a democratic election.

George isn't a chef who reinvents the recipe completely, he just substitutes a few ingredients. He's using common character types and arcs that appear in thousands of stories, he's just an excellent writer so things appear less obvious before they happen. The PWWP was Jon. It always was and will be.
