Ainz has tortured and performed "experimentation" on others but because they didn't get a full 2.5 episodes to themselves (and let's be honest, they're not cute), nobody cried outrage. Even that assassin group that got wiped out by Sebas had paragraphs of backstory but no one cared when they were tortured.
Also note that Adventurers are viewed in a better light than Workers (who were basically criminals), since they do legal jobs assigned by the kingdom. That's why none of them mattered to Ainz. To him, they were nothing more than pests blinded by their own greed for money.

Well, if it's not in the anime then I can't get upset about it.

And how is defending Ainz mean people are defending themselves? That comment is just ridiculous. Neither Ainz nor anyone needs to justify his actions since it's already been established that he only cares and does things for the benefit of Nazarick. Foresight, unfortunately, hit one of his few berserk buttons (lying to his face about his friends) and that's why he acted cruelly.

Ainz is a character in a story. Obviously, people reading the story don't need to justify his actions.
People are absolutely doing it in this thread though. For example, you just brought up that they hit one of his berserk buttons as a justification for his actions.
