Did people actually think this wasn't completely justified in the context?
Reminder that she probably would have starved, froze, skinned alive by the Boltons or enslaved by the white walkers either way

Of course it was not justified. It was the ultimate shirking of Stannis' morality and honor. Initially he wanted a better life for shireen, literally said he wouldn't rest until he sat HER on the iron throne. And now what? What was it for? Half the real in ruins, on average he is seen with indifference at best by the smallfolk, and he is literally heirless.
That's why after this he had to be die.

>sacrificing the entire realm
what the fuck are you talking about? The shit that ruined the realm was the war of the 5 kings and the subsequent fighting afterwards

How exactly did burning her save the realm?
Sounds about right.

In the book Stannis sacrifices his soldiers to the Lord of Light because they were committing crimes like cannibalism and it was a two birds with one stone situation. In the show its just Stannis does a 180 and burns his daughter. It was just fucking unbelievable and blatantly terrible writing.

This weakened the series. Stannis's exit seemed hurried. Burning his daughter was only necessary to lessen the fallout from his departure from the fans.

The worst thing about it was that the made Selyse seem like she gave a shit about Shireen. Selyse would be the one tying her up and pouring oil on her to burn.
It was made worse by that hamfisted scene with his daugher, the one he says that she's his heir no matter what. It was a cheap way to build a dilemma and drama, kitsch as fuck.

He's going to walk into King's Landing, the gates having been opened for him, only to run into Lancel carrying The Mountain's head. Then Lancel will kill him because Targs are the enemies of the Church.
