dude is talking shit about me when he literally droned people’s weddings
I’m “obsessed” with the sub because of the irony, the lack of certification, and all the stupid decisions that went into it. The cause of the sub’s destruction is very interesting to discuss. Every time I learn more about the company and the CEO’s decisions, I’m more baffled that anyone went anywhere with them.
The migrant boat situation is super sad and not fun to discuss. I don’t come to social media to be depressed.
Raising awareness is the second step towards solving a problem. Silencing or ignoring it is counter productive.
It may be depressing for you, but for others it is a life or death situation. Would you want them to ignore your suffering if tables were turned? And let you suffer in silence?
exactly. there’s a word for it, for sure, but the idea that a sadder story existing means we can’t talk about a more unique one too?
This is gonna sound privileged but migrant boats sinking is not new news. This has been over the headlines since at least 2015 so people aren’t going to be receptive any more. But it’s not every day that millionaires die in a submarine
That kinda uhh… Makes it worse? They have been letting migrants die every month for years? That does not make it okay at all, neither ignoreable. It makes it way worse.
Yeah it’s definitely privileged. When the news doesn’t effect you and is just a matter of screen entertainment, then it is absolutely privileged.
Where was this sympathy of his when he was drone bombing children?
Obama is known for his public speaking skills. What he says does not necessarily match his actions.
enemy combatants
Obama is a redditor
I think that the mystery is cause for the news coverage, along with the unique aspect of the sub. I’d like to think that a missing submarine of migrants would get the same attention but… not sure.
A very reputable news outlet in my country ran several stories a day about the sub. Wha**t happened?, Infos about the people, how muxh air do they have?, a story when their air supply actually ran out, …
The weirdest were two opinion pieces about the reasons why “we” cared and wanted to read more about 5 rich people than about a sinking boat full of migrants. It felt really distasteful, because they wrote all the articles, because they wanted the clicks and money
