Good comment. Unfortunately however, it's implied in it. Do note that there is a click-baitish aspect to the title - albeit, it's a very well constructed title; it implies that if you click on the link and read the article, you are one of those who admire said criminals.
I wouldn't call this a "royal we," but rather a "journalistic we." It annoys me too sometimes....
Its understandable some HN commenters who proverbially "take a step back" in their analysis are left with a bad taste in their mouth.
