Exactly. Alliser had no love for the integrity of the watch, all he cared about was retaining power to lord it over others. He talked like he was just a necessary evil, yet always had the biggest shit-eating grin whenever bad things happened to his own men. Alliser didn’t hate Jon because he was a threat to the Watch, Alliser hated Jon because he was a threat to Alliser

Well don't forget that Ser Alliser was a knight. He just made the mistake of fighting for the Targaryens during the rebellion instead of the Usurper. After the war was over, he was given a choice between death or the night's watch, so he went north to live. And of course because he was nobility, he was better educated and trained than the criminals who he served alongside, of course he advanced through the ranks above the rest. So Alliser wasn't really being a hypocrite because he wasn't a criminal himself, not really, he just fought for his rightful king rather than the usurper and was punished for it after the war. He didn't particularly care for the thieves and murderers in the night's watch either and it's probably part of the reason why he was so cruel to most of them. And Jon Snow was the bastard of one of the two men most responsible for his own banishment. Hating him was inevitable. He had more cause to hate Jon Snow than Catelyn Stark did, and even then only hated him half as much as her.

People always find justifications for what they do, his pride was too much to admit he was just insecure and didnt like someone new and so young to take over, so he just went on with the bs about the nightwatchm and all.

In the books, Alliser Thorne doesn't kill Jon. He respects him, as he was chosen as a leader. In the books, Jon Snow is killed by his majordomuses, because he broke his oath - he wanted to take the wildlings and the Nights Watch and go South to kill Ramsey and save Arya (who is supposed to be held at Winterfell). It was much better in the books, as his murder has much deeper meaning; they were right to kill him, it was basically their job to assure that no commander ever wanted to use Nights Watch to engage in politics etc. In the show its just a basic "oh he bad cuz he likes wildlings".

Ollie was the only one of the four to be hanged that had a chance of redemption. He was strung along by happenstance since his parents were killed, if he could be given the insights of the Lord Commander's duties like Jon was given by Jeor, he might've found solace and reluctantly agreed with Jon's decisions, however much he hated the principles that were being broken. But his presence there and the lengths he chose to go to threatens Jon's entire strategy for the survival of Westeros. He took the vows, has no family elsewhere, and will likely attempt to undermine Jon Snow if kept alive, or recruit others for another assassination attempt. Ollie had to go. Quite possibly the saddest death of them all.

@@gidmichigan1765 It’s likely that they already knew about them. LC Mormont, Qorhin halfhand, Maester Aemon, and hell even Stannis knew about them and they likely told some of the few veterans of the Watch they probably wouldn’t listen regardless and just left the Wildlings to die due to the millennia of bad blood. I agree that getting one from Hardhome would help, but due to them being under a full assault and focusing more on evacuation they probably didn’t have the time or patience either. They should’ve just killed the traitors like Alliser and leave them outside the wall to come back as wights for proof instead

I think one of the overriding arcs and tragedies was that no-one was able to reconcile their differences for the most part in this whole story in a way that benefited the greater good. The Great Houses that decimated each other in wars of succession while in the knowledge that winter was eventually coming, had forgotten what that even meant, as too much time had passed. They all eventually lost and squandered any real meaning of the real threat, beyond the words of an old House that was purported to be the ancestors of the First Men, in spite of an entire order that was supposed to preserve knowledge and pass it on. This is true of the Night's Watch. They became dilapidated and ineffectual as a byproduct of this over the many years that had passed to allow the lawlessness of the wildlings to prevail and prosper. To the point of becoming the threat that they eventually became as part of cause and effect. I suppose that when true knowledge is lost over time, only the human condition and machiavellian concepts remain, unchecked, with the consequences that it ultimately brings.

Well Jon getting killed in the books is under totally different circumstances, and actually justified by the laws of the night's watch. Jon told them all that they were going to march on Winterfell to kill Ramsay Bolton, which violates the code of the night's watch that says they do not take part in the politics of westeros. And in the books, abandoning the rules of the night's watch is typically a death sentence, especially for something that would bring ruin to the entire watch. The show just had to make up some BS reason to loosely follow the same general events because they had already deviated on many important details.
