"I could stand in the middle of 5th Avenue and shoot somebody and I wouldn't lose voters."

That's why Homelander was so awesome, people cheering after he murdered in front of others.

(and people thinking he's the hero)

Just the logical conclusion of the American "f you, I got mine" mentality plus moral relativism.
