Oh no.
Anyway, there are thousands of refugees getting drowned every day and they don't pay $250K to kill themselves and their kids in a sub made by a guy who thinks safety is stupid.
Wow, relax, dude. This isn't reddit.
People are so mad about other people having opinions on billionaires doing stupid things lol
If anyone deserved to die down there, it's the CEO of the company who was on the sub. There have been multiple accounts of him blatantly disregarding safety regulations, recommendations by engineers, testing data, and they did not have the sub certified by any governing body before the trip. It's possible the passengers had no idea how badly planned the mission was, as it seems like all this information is only coming out just now.
On the bright side a couple people are up at least a billion bux today..
I'd also rather an instantaneous crush to a drawn out suffocation.
It's extremely easy when you consider they're overfinanced enough to take a 4000m dive with someone with a 5 dollar koystick and who thinks safety is a stupid concept
Like, you think this is about money....it's not. It's about the utter cancerous abuse of money, the dumbassed invincibility you gain when you can essentially not care about safety for ANYONE, even yourself, and you pay a moron to potentially kill you.
Also, if this country is going to tell regular people not to eat avocados and literally SKIP MEALS to save money, then the top incone class should be reminded through things like this to keep their egos in their pants and do something more constructive with their money than buy pixelspace platforms and kill themselves in the ocean.
Yes. Because when articles literally telling people to skip meals in order to save money get published, unironically, I am going to balk at a multi-channel outlet operation to garner sympathy for these people.
Bothsidesing this falls so flat when you know this guy ###fired a safety whistleblower### and the people went with him thinking that is a very good and fun idea.
You wrote I am PERSONALLY condemning people to death here twice, as if repetition majes it true.
I am obviously not condemning anyone to death. Am I? I never woke up one day and wished for these people to die.
They did that themselves.
And especially that poor kid who didn't even want to be there.
This is NOT a tragedy, this is consequences.
It's not about the money itself, it's about the power said money (and control of the company) brings. That CEO's bad attitude toward safety means it's WAY better that he suffered the consequences first, tragically taking a few others with him, than for him to have taken many others' lives and continue to live a luxurious life with blood on his hands.
Every billionaire deserves death... When there are people out there suffering and you somehow accrued more than a Billion dollars(By exploiting those very people), that is extremely morally wrong.
The more that die the better. The ocean has done more for humanity in the last 6 months than humanity has done for itself in the last 6 years.
Yeah, Hitler had a lot of justifications for slaughtering Jews too.
How can you be so blind? It doesn’t matter what banner you claim, if you pursue your ideals through death and violence, you are not the good guy.
