Sansa loves Jon. She has never and will never think of him as only anything. Especially half brother. You do know they are not really siblings but cousins? How dare you make up such shitty lies about Sansa.
Sansa would beg to differ.
“He’s our brother,” Arya said, much too loudly. Her voice cut through the afternoon quiet of the tower room. […]     “Our half brother,” Sansa corrected, soft and precise.
She had not thought of Jon in ages. He was only her half brother, but still … with Robb and Bran and Rickon dead, Jon Snow was the only brother that remained to her.
Sansa literally corrects Arya when Arya says that Jon is their brother. Her thoughts of Jon always include the differentiation of him being her half brother or bastard brother.
“There was a black brother,” Sansa said, “begging men for the Wall, only he was kind of old and smelly.” She hadn’t liked that at all. She had always imagined the Night’s Watch to be men like Uncle Benjen. In the songs, they were called the black knights of the Wall. But this man had been crookbacked and hideous, and he looked as though he might have lice. If this was what the Night’s Watch was truly like, she felt sorry for her bastard half brother, Jon.
She sang for mercy, for the living and the dead alike, for Bran and Rickon and Robb, for her sister Arya and her bastard brother Jon Snow, away off on the Wall.
Sansa could never understand how two sisters, born only two years apart, could be so different. It would have been easier if Arya had been a bastard, like their half brother Jon. She even looked like Jon, with the long face and brown hair of the Starks, and nothing of their lady mother in her face or her coloring. And Jon’s mother had been common, or so people whispered. Once, when she was littler, Sansa had even asked Mother if perhaps there hadn’t been some mistake. Perhaps the grumkins had stolen her real sister. But Mother had only laughed and said no, Arya was her daughter and Sansa’s trueborn sister, blood of their blood. Sansa could not think why Mother would want to lie about it, so she supposed it had to be true.
Note the assertion here that Arya was Sansa’s trueborn sister, blood of their blood. It implies that there is a difference in proximity between a trueborn sibling and a bastard sibling. Sansa goes on to think that it would be easier if Arya was a bastrad like Jon because of that exact sentiment since it is expected for there to be a distance between trueborn and bastard siblings.
Also, Sansa does not know that Jon is her cousin so that has no bearing on how she refers to him, hence the half brother part. That does not mean that I think that Sansa hates Jon or any such nonsense, only that she sees him in a different way from how she sees the rest of her siblings, specifically because he is a bastard.
In short, please do reread the books before you go off in people’s inbox about their so-called lies. Or, if you’re a show-only watcher, perhaps rewatch the scene where Sansa says that she was horrible to Jon as a child and asks him to forgive her.
