That's just one from this thread. In other news threads the top two comments were people saying "good riddance" or something similar. I'd screenshot those for you as well but I now can't find the threads in my feed because the feed updated and they got pushed down to god knows where.
I mean if you specifically look for it you can of course find them, you can find people cheering for dead puppies and kittens too, there are maniacs everywhere. Thing is it's far from being an overall attitude, it's really really minority.
I only went back to specifically look for them because you said they didn't exist. Previously I wasn't looking for them, they were just there as per my example. Additionally, 'lots' is relative and doesn't necessarily mean majority.
Regardless, this is largely semantics as the point is that there are people taking joy in it and I find that sad.
