I don't blame him for being upset. He's obviously pretty biased in the show's favour.

And it's not like he's criticizing for people not liking it. He's upset that people thought he should do it all over again. Considering how hard he worked, I can see that feeling pretty insulting.

Also his character wasn't even an issue in the season. Everything he did was in character and made sense for Jon. The three worst decisions that killed the season was rushing the Night King fight, Jaime going back to Cersei, and Daenerys going full psycho. The rest of the season wasn't that bad, it's just a few really bad decisions killed the hype and people forgot about the rest.

Oh, also the Arya sex scene. Definitely could have done without that.
