You are a bad person if you think the lost sub is funny or something to be celebrated because the passengers are rich

Every single thread that I’ve seen about this tragedy has been filled top to bottom with jokes and celebration because the people on board the sub are “super rich”

I’ve been a part of multiple conversations about this tragedy at work and in social settings over the past few days and not once has the wealth of the passengers come up - leading me to further detest what I’m reading about the story here on this site .

Thinking that you know anything about these people because of their socioeconomic status is incredibly naive at best and absolutely willfully ignorant at worst. Making jokes and even openly celebrating what those poor people (including a 19 year old kid) went through/are going through speaks volumes about your level of mental and emotional development.

I have trouble even conceiving a worse and more frightening death than what is potentially currently happening to the passengers. Reading jokes about it - open celebration even - makes me feel embarrassed to even use this site.; २१/६/२३, ६:३८ PM

That coming from a miserable old white privileged idiot who ruled with an iron fist and can't handle that she can't do a thing about it. She is ugly, inside and out.; २१/६/२३, ६:४९ PM

TickTock म्हणाले...: Lem,

If the 4 passengers had/have to wait 4 days to die, that is a terrible death. No denying the passengers who were lied to deserve sympathy.

But it is hard to contemplate the the magnitude of the hubris of the company without resort to that most human of responses when faced with the infinite. Humor. And Darwin in action. That man, pilot/ owner/whatever, killed 4 other people. I have no sympathy for him.

None; २१/६/२३, ११:०८ PM

madAsHell म्हणाले...: Has anyone ever heard of the International Climate Change Court???

I have an old acquaintance that is a law professor at Arizona State. He was in the top 10 of the high school graduating class. He might have been top-of-the-class. I don't recall to where he matriculated, but I'm sure it wasn't one of the state supported schools.

I stumbled across his profile on Facebook, and thought this should be interesting. We have several mutual friends.

I'm looking at his profile, and his most recent activity is filing claims against climate change in the International Court of Climate Change.

I had to look it up. There is a recently established Court of Climate Change.

gadfly म्हणाले...: TFG has small hands that brought on this Marco Rubio gotcha back in 2015: "You know what they say about men with small hands." So now we know for sure from Stormy Daniels' new book - it's "smaller than average," though "not freakishly small."

“He knows he has an unusual penis,” Daniels writes. “It has a huge mushroom head. Like a toadstool . . .

“I lay there, annoyed that I was getting fucked by a guy with Yeti pubes and a dick like the mushroom character in Mario Kart . . .

“It may have been the least impressive sex I’d ever had, but clearly, he didn’t share that opinion.”; २२/६/२३, १२:३६ AM

Owen म्हणाले...: MadAsHell @ 11:56: “…International Climate Court…”. Thanks for the tip, I’ll have to study this a bit. It sounds utterly implausible but also exactly like the kind of hopeful scam the climate change grifters would try. Seems to me that courts and their jurisdiction are only what nations (and their political subdivisions) agree to, and typically operate within geographic or politically-agreed boundaries; and by “politically-agreed” I mean “agreed by my elected representatives, not some faceless functionary in Brussels or Geneva.”

If I got a “summons” from some “international climate court,” I would be strongly tempted to treat it the way I would those letters from Nigerian ex-bureaucrats who want to give me money.; २२/६/२३, ४:२२ AM

Whoever made that post needs to take a cold hard look at their internet habits. Not once have I heard that opinion or anything like it voiced in any forum. It had not even occurred to me as a possible response. Until now.; २२/६/२३, ५:३२ AM

He was found guilty on three misdemeanor counts of failing to file federal income tax returns (and acquitted on three other "failure to file" charges). His co-defendants, Douglas P. Rosile and Eddie Ray Kahn, were convicted on the conspiracy and false claim charges in connection with the income tax refund claims filed for Snipes.[29][30]

yes, BUT!
a) we DIDN'T stop!
b) it's been MORE THAN 5yrs!
ergo
c) we're "Past the Tipping Point!"

Owen म्हणाले...: Farmgirl @ 7:56: “…she’s no Al Gore.” Thanks, one Gore is enough. On the substance, however, I think she knew perfectly well what she meant, has known it all along. And now she will wriggle away from the consequences of her failed prediction, by adopting the interpretation you suggest, and probably claiming her English, it not so good.

I’m sorry, I don’t want to let her off the hook. Nor do I want to excuse any of the other panic-mongering grifters with their cheap unfalsifiable rhetoric. They have gotten rich and powerful by spouting their false prophecies for decades, and their wealth and power come at great cost to the rest of us. They should be called to account; tried; shamed; punished; cast out.

Canada is doing its part by allowing arsonists to set forest fires, releasing tons of CO2, and then not making much of an effort to extinguish them. WHY CAN’T OUR OWN GOVERNMENT DO AT LEAST AS MUCH?; २२/६/२३, १२:१९ PM
