How do book readers feel that an adaption is now spoiling the source material? Do you think GRRM is ashamed of what he has done to book fans or is he too fixated on his artery-thickening meals? I don't even mind waiting five years for a new book. But now I'm waiting while everyone around me is spoiling the books by talking about the latest episode. How did GRRM think this one through?
It's not spoiling anything, the tv producers can go every fucking direction they want it to go and you know damn well GRRM will just bend down and take it anyway.

The adaptation doesn't do justice to the author. GRRM has no children and devoted his life to ASOIAF. D&D wasted it all.

if you can't separate the two mediums you're autistic

The show only spoils things to an extent. The context of certain events is still missing.
For example, no one will be surprised to learn that Stannis doesn't survive his campaign, but it seems unlikely that he'll go down in the same manner he does in the show. It's even possible that he takes Winterfell before things start going badly.

Yeah he seems really devoted to writing Winds of Winter
