No one should be obligated to feel sympathy for a bunch of rich people who are probably dead after spending a grotesque amount of money doing something stupidly risky for no practical reason but that they’re rich and bored,

BUT

I do think it’s fucked up that some of you guys seem to think it’s a moral failing to feel anything but glee and delight at a bunch of people, one of which is 19, suffering one of the most horrific deaths imaginable that I wouldn’t wish on my worst enemy.

#titanic #oceangate #it’s possible to be critical of all the factors that lead to the situation in the first place #(ft a whole lot of greed and hubris)#while also having a modicum of sympathy for a fellow human being suffering a truly nightmarish death #but pitying horrendous human suffering when the people involve are rich makes you a bootlicker apparently??
