Yeah, I mean it's not like they don't have an entire building full of witnesses who saw the final struggle between Zod and Superman, where he begged him not to, but chose humans over his own kind.  What the hell is there to feel hate for?  It isn't his fault his parents sent him here.


I get why people would hate him..  I mean, the aliens came looking for him.  So far, he has contributed nothing to the world aside from fixing problems that wouldn't have existed if he hadn't come to Earth.  And people like finding things to blame anyway.

Again, it's not that I don't think it makes sense, it's just not a god idea for a superman movie.

Well, that's not entirely true either, at least from MoS we know of numerous incidents where he saved people.  Lois twice, humanity, the school bus full of kids, the oil rig, etc...  So there is reason to believe that he cares about humanity.  I do get it, kneejerk reaction is to hate that they had to choose Earth, but it really wasn't his choice (should be able to explain that, dude's calm as hell).

Dunno, couple these occasions together, with the entire shouting match between Zod and Superman at the end in front of all those people, before he snaps his neck to avoid killing humans...that's gotta count for something, doesn't it?
