Meta note: it’s odd that my comment has got way more disagree votes than agree votes (16 vs 3 as of writing), but OP has also got more disagree votes than agree votes (6 vs 3). I guess it’s different people? Or most the people disagreeing with my comment can’t quite get themselves to agree with the main post?
The content of your comment is not just “I disagree with the post”. It’s “I disagree with the post plus some implicature that the author is rationalizing an immoral decision”. So it’s quite reasonable for people to disagree with both the post and you.
