Maybe it was the delivery?

Maybe it's because I feel like Dany has no real right to demand that of Jon?

It is a line that make sense coming from Cersei, not Dany. They have built Dany to be his god like Savior to the world, not this dictator.


I thought it made perfect sense. She wants to rule the seven kingdoms (although she seems to have forgotten giving the Iron Islands up). Right now, he claims to be king of two of those seven.

i mean let's be clear. Dany has not stepped foot in Westeros for like 20 years and shows up with a foreign army

she has no knowledge of Westeros, let alone experience or social networking in Westeros. she's basically telling a bastard who kept the North together after the terrible Bolton/Frey insurrection (as agents of the Lannisters) put it at risk. she doesn't know Jon Snow or if he even wants to be "King of the North". she's met one person from the North in her life (Jorah Mormont). this also completely invalidates her "we're not going to rule the ashes" bullshite when she's egging on direct conflict/war with the entire North. it's just ridiculous

if the point of the scene was to make Dany look like an ignorant, stupid, and arrogant a-hole, then they succeeded. that's obviously not what "girl power" D/D are doing, though.

she also admitted last season that the best way to rule Westeros would be to marry the right person

I would think a wildly popular King of the North would be a prime candidate, so immediately demanding him to "bend the knee" would be a complete lack situational awareness
