Why Burning Shireen Is The Worst Change From THE BOOKS, Ever

No, there's no fucking spoiler tag on this one, and no, I don't care if that offends you.

See, I defended the Sansa Rape Scene, because I don't think it's beyond a reasonable doubt that Littlefinger will try to rape Sansa in the next book. I thought the show was moving the pieces around while still getting to both "Sansa has an awful sexual experience" and "Sansa stops trusting Littlefinger."

I defended Jon going to Hardhome because hey, why not, Show!Jon is more an action hero than his book counterpart, and Tormund could reasonably want him to give his word to the Free Folk before they showed up at the wall hoping for passage.

But this?

This?

The Stannis Baratheon in the novels would never burn his daughter. No. Never.

What the hell is wrong with these people? I might as well start rooting for Villain Sue, because it's clear as all fuck that the showrunners do.
