People were laughing about it because, normally, when a CEO violates safety standards, the people who get killed and maimed are the workers. It's just nice to see the CEO be the one to eat the consequences of how they run their businesses.

I love when people talk about a news story "distracting" from another news story. They are just revealing that they get their news fed to them through social media algorithms.
They’re always townies who failed middle school social studies but have been told by people like Dennis Prager and Charlie Kirk that they’re actually really informed and profound thinkers whom society just overlooked. Diamonds in the rough if you will. “Actually, you know those educated leftists who know what constitutes a peer reviewed source? Yea, they’re actually the dumb ones because they don’t have Sean Hannity’s entire catalogue of books at home.”
It really was. I also saw some less-informed commenters be like "whats some director know about the ocean" w/o realizing they're referring to the one director who's like, a well known ocean expert
The expired carbon fiber is my favorite part of this story. CF that was not good enough for Boeing, a company that has given up on quality at every level.
There are e-mails circulating and it’s even funnier like people brought this shit up to the sub building guy and he was like “ITS FINE YOU AND YOUR SAFETY PRECAUTIONS WILL BE THE END OF ALL COMMERCE” Like he really did die from his own supply

Rich idiots die on Everest all the time. So, it is reasonable that rich idiots might also die at the bottom of the ocean. EDIT: People do risky things all the time. Sometimes they have good reasons for engaging in the risky behavior, and sometimes they don't. EXAMPLE 1: A Ukrainian citizen choosing to fight Russians because he wants to protect his family and his country is a person engaging in risky behavior with good reasons. I want this person to live and triumph, but if he dies, I will mourn his death. EXAMPLE 2: A rich person who goes on a submarine sightseeing tour to the bottom of the Atlantic is a person engaging in risky behavior without good reasons. I don't want him to die, but if he does, I am not going to waste much emotional energy caring.
what is the minimum acceptable altitude, or minimum acceptable depth at which if someone dies, you just say “pff, dumbass, shouldn’t have been there anyway” and move on with your life? like, at what point are you 100% allowed to just not give a fuck. or do you think it’s a function of money spent, relative to depth or height achieved?
@@lettersnstuff What throws it off either way is that forbidden island where people keep getting stone aged killed because they want to teach that tribe about Jesus. Also, if you paid to be on a SpaceX rocket you'll probably die on the launch pad which is basically at sea level. So... (expense + distance from sea level)*how funny = number of fucks required before you can give one
"It's a distraction!" Nah ppl are just fascinated about something that's never happened before: humans pressed into jam, boiled at the sun's temperature, and finishing by blowing red mist all over the place, leaving absolutely nothing to recover.** And I'm supposed to care about Hunter's taxes? Boring asf **edit: i guess they found something resembling human remains. Point still stands tho
I was hoping for orcas to appear in the third act but we got nothing. "It appears the rescue vessel has been taken out by a pod of killer whales with antifa flags."

that's one of the most stunning things about the CEO, that he was so dumb he didn't care about safety **for himself** even.
