Uldren unfortunately has been a victim of a female dominated society and the machinations of powerful females.
Mara. Riven. Savathun.
Mara even admits that she knew that her gambit might cost Uldren’s life, but she did it anyway.
So while what he did to Cayde was shitty, truth is he was being manipulated and deceived, at best. Outright controlled at worst.
Then add to the fact that he can’t remember any of this, and can’t understand why he’s a pariah to some and an object of pity to others, and he is [i]still[/i] forsaken, and still a pawn in a game played by powerful women.
Only now The Traveler anted up to the table.

The lore said he ran into multiple guardians who showed hostility so I wonder why he never asked “y u do dis”

He wouldn't have understood the answer. It would have been like listening to someone tell you about someone else's life. He would have had no idea who Cayde was, and no idea why people would hate him so much for kiling him. Especially since had no memory of killing him. Which is why the other Guardians took pity on him, because they understood what he was going through. I think the big lesson in Uldren's suffering is that, although The Traveler wipes the memory of a Guardian's previous life, his or her basic character "breeds" true. In his dealings with people, Uldren is still showing the same problems and the same bad habits in this incarnation as he did in his previous life. Having his life determined by the most negative influences around him. IOW, instead of reaching out to those who are willing to show him compassion....he instead reacts to the hostility and isolates himself from it.

At least he has pulled pork by his side. So he's not completely alone in the darkness.
