I had that "I hate Spring" moment a few years ago as well.
Another part of the problem is that at some point you are programming in Spring more than Java. I've even interviewed candidates who struggled to tell the two apart.
The question becomes "would I rather program in Java or Spring?" and, generally, for all its other shortcomings, I'd prefer to program in Java over Spring.
