The complete and utter lack of understanding as to why people may react in the way the person you're replying to boggles my mind. Are you willfully ignorant of how destructive billionaires can be on society? Are you completely neglecting how negligent the CEO of this diving company was about their own safety?
Instead of wagging your finger from your pedestal, spend some time understanding why so many people share this type of reaction.
Personally, I'm proud of having more empathy and humanity than a billionaire.
lol bro. You don't have to like the rich class to have basic human empathy for other people
I'm not saying you can't have empathy for other people. I'm saying you should probably understand better as to why people have the reaction they do
Because people like to act shallow and just put other people into grouos they hate regardless of actually knowing anyone form that group?
Gee, that's always works well for everyone.
murderers are a group.
should they have the receive the same level of empathy, of say, teachers. also a group.
There was a single billionaire on that sub. Just one. There were two businessmen, one with his son, and a well known diver. It wasn’t a sub full of billionaires. Certainly they were all wealthy, no question there. But your reaction can only be “Good, they deserved it” if you think the deaths of the others (including the 19 year-old, who had no control over what family he was born into) are worth the death of the billionaire.
It’s a response fundamentally lacking in empathy. You’re asking us to have empathy for the person who isn’t displaying empathy.
Sure, he cut a lot of safety corners. This is the epitome of “fuck around and find out”. It’s even ironic.
But we can still have empathy. Being stupid about it doesn’t mean that they didn’t leave families behind.
i think people who willing put themselves into a dangerous situation deserve what is coming to them, yes.
empathy has shit to do with it. i have empathy for people who do the right things and suffer, not for people who do stupid/wrong things and suffer.
i fail to get what moral standing there is for empathizing with people who do stupid shit that ends up endangering others.
god forbid there be negative consequences for negative actions....
if you think feeling bad for others no matter the context is some sort of moral achievement... bully you. i call it grandstanding.
do you also have empathy for a drunk driver who murders a family of four and gets away with minor injuries?
people tend to have endless empathy for those that they worship. and total disregard for anyone else.
it's bootlicking of tragedy.
@smokinjoe @Girlparts @Turkey_Titty_city @EnderWi99in This is what Internet White Knighting looks like.
Ender's heart is in the right place, but his head is up his ass.
Lol you have no idea what white knighting means you moron.

Funnily enough, I do.
It's funny you think that. Go back to Reddit.
