This is haunting.

There's no gore or anything, it's just twisted metal and cables. Still, seeing it and thinking "humans were alive in there mere days ago" made my gut drop. It's not like looking at wreckage of an old ship or plane or something, it's different. Because it's so small, it feels more intimate. Like looking at a coffin vs looking at a graveyard

The death of one man is a tragedy, the death of millions is a statistic

The death of a billionaire however, is hilarious 🤣

How is the death of anyone hilarious? Does it matter how much you have in your pocket book which will determine the level of hilarity to you? That's cold. I surely hope you have more empathy in person.

It's a lot like Indian tech scammers and other people who steal as a way of making a living. Many people won't have sympathy for a person who steals from old ladies falling down the stairs because he was carrying too many google play cards.

A billionaire is more like the owner of a scam call center. They greedily hoard their resources and they exploit all of their workers by paying them less than they're worth. They shape politics to benefit themselves at the expense of others.
