Why are we assuming that everyone likes Jamie lannister?

Sure, he's one of my favorite characters, but so was joffery. We gotta split this into two things.

1)is he an entertaining, fun to watch character? Yes.

2) would you want him as a friend? Uh, no.

3) should people act like jaime, and push little shits out windows? Maybe.

But if the question is whether I'm rooting for him or not...idk. it would appear his is a story of redemption, the bad guy turning good. But Martin likes fucking with expectations, so maybe jaime dies for no reason before being redeemed. Proven trope on the one hand, entertaining nonetheless on the other.
