For those who are unaware: A couple billionaires, a pilot, and one of the billionaires’ son are currently stuck inside an extremely tiny sub a couple thousand meters under the sea (inside of the sub with the guys above).
They were supposed to dive down to the titanic, but lost connection about halfway down. They’ve been missing for the past 48 hours, and have 2 days until the oxygen in the sub runs out. Do you think they’ll make it?
The horrid reddit takes are leaking into lemmy. I don’t like most billionaires but you really think they deserve suffocating in a small metal cylinder? You don’t even know these people
Yes. They wouldn’t hesitate to do the same to you if they thought it would help their portfolio. There isn’t a billionaire out there that hasn’t exploited people for money.
Sorry, about that I made the joke during late night after work. But been looking into to it lately background of this guy. I can’t help do hate billionaires because they are basically dragons, similar what we see in lord of the rings movie, smaug, they bend the rules, they exploit, they hourd so much money, their death could mean chance for the wealth to be distributed it could be to their families or if a good chance to their whatever charity, or perhaps to the government and lastly maybe to the people who need those money.
Now for this person apparently his pushing for deregulation against submersible imagine that? Those rules where there because experts knew the dangers, now the danger bite him back.
