so the solution is to make fun of the victims, not put heat on the people who put them down there?

They are the same people. Unless they victims were kidnapped against their will, forced to sign a statement about the dangers from a guy who complained about restrictive regulations and shackled inside the sub.

No one put them down there. They paid money to do so and then signed waivers.

No one should feel sorry for a bunch of rich people who paid money to get into an unregulated submersible, that they were made aware of unsafe it was, to go deep underwater and check out what is essentially a mass grave of poor people.

if everybody on that sub collectively ignored any warning they got that it wasn't meant for those depths, then i'm not going to lie and say i have sympathy for them, but i'm also just not an internet edgelord who rushes at the chance to churn out memes when there's news of some death or tragedy

The reality of life is that countless people are suffering and dying at any given moment, many because of circumstances that were forced upon them rather than ones they went out of the way for of their own volition. It'd be impossible to function if you had to think about all of them as individuals or even as small groups. The main reason it's even a discussion about how we all need to care about these specific people is because mainstream news says they're who we should particularly care about right now.

I'm not saying it isn't tragic and horrific to think about, but it's also important to have perspective.

Ha... Karma maybe? There are 4 other people of course, but most people are making fun of the CEO who is on record for saying safety stifles innovation...

Anyway, it is still amazing the CEO Rush would go in a sub that he had to have known wasn't designed to go to the depths needed to see the Titanic.

Of course, I hope everyone is brought back alive, although it looks like a very remote possibility at this point... Most likely possibility looks like the under spec sub window gave way considering it was only rated for a fraction of the depth needed to get to the Titanic.

This is getting off topic, but Russia definitely got the better end of the deal. My only hope going forward is Americans stop traveling to Russia. Any American who would go there after that is either a fool or a Putin shill...which means they are also a fool.

Bro you don't even know who you're mad at. You just want to lash out at people for being judgy and quippy while doing the exact same shit. Why criticize the behavior if you're just gonna engage in it

No you definitely had me confused if you think I try to keep up a nice mask. I don't, which is why I'm telling you you're a hypocrite and what you posted is angsty cringy nonsense that you could have ripped off my MySpace 15 years ago.
