And HN seems to only care about money and shareholder value. It’s disgusting.

I’m not deluded to think HN is perfect, I’ve been here for many, many years and seen the imperfections. That said, this subject has exposed a deep, rich vein of depravity that makes me incredibly uncomfortable.

Not everyone here is so dismissive of such choices.

Some find these errors deeply concerning. There are dozens of us! Dozens!

My first instinct is to tell you that "HN" is not a single monolithic entity; it is thousands of entirely separate individuals, and opinions will vary widely between any one of them.

On the other hand, yes, the capitalistic focus those kinds of people have is indeed disgusting... but remember that you're on a U.S. website filled with people working in the U.S. tech industry. Unfettered capitalism is so deeply ingrained in U.S. culture that it's entirely natural to them to prioritise money and shareholder value.
