Camarade Boina

TBH what gets me angry is the fact literally less than a week before the single biggest sea faring tragedy that hit the Mediterranean sea, and easily one of the top 20 straight up sea tragedy in recent memory happened and literally nobody gave nor is giving a shit.

A boat full of migrants sunk between Greece and Italy, 80 have been confirmed dead, more than 500 are missing, and the worst is, the boat was being surveilled the entire time by Frontex and the Greek coast guard who straight up lied (or chose not to see) the distress the ship was in.

I can understand people lashing out at the death of rich people driven largely by their hubris and trusting a downright irresponsible psycho.

Ufff I didn’t have that info :(

Poor kid

Except James Cameron didn’t willfully ignore the existing collective knowledge of the industry, did not set out to completely ignore basic safety in the name of “innovation” (read: being a cheap ass), didn’t actively fire people who gave the slightest shit about safety, the list goes on and on and on. The CEO was some techbro moron who payed for his own hubris. It’s unfortunate anyone but him had to die to prove literally everyone but him right, except maybe the two millionaires being the incarnation of bourgeois stupidity and hubris too.

I feel bad for the french oceanographer and the 19 year old. I sneer at the two billionaires. I laugh at the CEO. I also feel bad for the taxpayers who had to shell out millions of dollar in the rescue effort, a rescue which honestly, while legally necessary, was morally arguable given the track record of the company to shit all over government regulations. At least their death was humane and quick (instantaneous really)
