HN consists of mostly humans. Unfortunately, even the smartest and most unbiased ones amongst us aren't entirely immune to sensationalism, so some of us might have voted for reasons other than hate.

Human nature!

.edit: down-vote city for calling HNers human? Or what? Just curious. Don't really care about the points.

.edit²: removed a bit of the blanket from that statement. Pardon the initial poor wording!

You might not be aware, but a substantial portion of HN readers are robots from the future. Calling them 'mostly human' is somewhat insulting.

People downvoted you because you're saying they want Uber to burn due to sensationalism and not because it's a genuinely bad company. It sounds condescending and probably pissed people off.

Fair enough, I'll remove a bit of the blanket from that statement. Thanks for the answer!
