MODERATORS
this is a very weird first comment to make and the subsequent comments neither look productive nor particularly on topic. let's save the thirsting for rich people blood for a topic where it's more warranted folks, please and thanks.
But rich blood being spilled is the topic. They took a huge risk only to get more resources deployed to find them.
Ooooor, you know, don't let these people die (and definitely don't enjoy it, wtf), AND fix the medical and housing systems so a similar amount of effort goes toward making sure everyone else also doesn't die. Letting some rich people die doesn't make any poor people less dead.
[x] Doubt
At least it evens the score a bit. Yes we should enjoy when rich people meet grisly fates, they've literally doomed the rest of us.
Regardless of one's opinion the super rich, the thing also has crew that are just there because they're paid to operate the thing, I doubt they make enough to buy tickets for this kind of thing themselves.
The best new eco funeral option is human composting, let’s hope they had advance directives to support that industry as well!
“Ask a Mortician” did a video on what happened to the bodies from the Titanic. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OHwXhUFQPCk
She also did a video on human composting. https://youtu.be/_LJSEZ_pl3Y
They’re dead.
Come in if you had the money and were bored you’d totally do it. Maybe even go for the premium extended package they got, with the full sinking-to-your-death experience
