I had the same experience talking to others around here. I guess they aren't "real Americans" either. Or, maybe this is an unusually black & white event.

I'd say the HN public is the bubble there. Lot of aspiring CEO who take the "don't care with rules if you can get away with it" message to heart so they feel like they have more in common with the victim than with the perpetrator of this murder. While I would not be surprised if it is the reverse for 90% of the USA population.

HN is literally the only place (online or in the real world) I've seen anyone defending this CEO and trying to drum up sympathy for him. It's likely that we are the weird bubble outside of everyone else.

By ~50% of voters, not 99%. More people agree on this than do on cat pics being cute.

So? You'd be surprised by what many of them think about insurance companies CEOs.
