Especially if you're like Mr. CEO who was so full of himself that he thought basic security practices were for losers. Yes, I get it, people died, but you can't tell me I have to feel bad about rich people dying doing what they loved: being money-grabbing self-centered idiots who will skimp on something like life saving measures to save a bit of money
There you go again, qualifying their personhood.
I'm not saying anyone should feel bad for them, but like I've said, the merciless mocking that's been going on this week is in poor taste.
These people all have families, presumably have friends. Now their loved ones have to try to grieve in a sea of media attention and playground insults. It's indecent.
I'm not qualifying their personhood, I'm just not wringing my hands over how it's so so sad that they died
ITT: people being jealous of richer people
Nah, at least to me it isn't a matter of wealth at all. Every single inch of this submersible looked like pure sketch, there were so many massive red flags and anyone with an ounce of sense would have been right to veer a hundred miles away from.
It's hard to feel sympathetic for the fools that paid to be on the damn thing when it was smelling of death before it hit the water.
