Hey, someone who shares my anit-Targ bias. And yeah, that definitely also contributes to my dislike for R+L=J. I stopped watching the show after s5 and have just been sitting on the sidelines with popcorn for a while, but watching people bitch about how R+L=J meant nothing has me shrugging and nodding. I hope that's something they got from George (actually I hope it's not even a true thing and this is the greatest con in history). In fact there are a lot of things in the last season that I kind of think might come from George, just with better writing than the show gave those points (like the war against the Others not being the final conflict, I picture Martin showing the fallout of alliances of convenience and for conflicts of interests to arise among forces who came together to fight a bigger threat. Kind of B5 season 5, showing the consequences of these mythic wars).
Also, while I'm not 100% opposed to Jon ending up on the throne (secret Targ or not) I mostly picture him sitting there with a clueless expression on his face until he and Ghost just peace out some day.
