Yeah, this is where I'm at too. It's just... obscene.
Same. Rich people hubris is just the kind of circus that makes popular news, it's grotesque. But also I get it, because a ship full of refugees dying is a grim reminder that all of us are one natural disaster, war, or psychopathic politician away from the same situation, while the submersible story is a tragedy that will never happen to any of us.
