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?
Billionaires are not your friend. They didn’t make billions by working hard. They are a symptom of a broken society, one that allows people to become gluttonous dragons hoarding wealth by exploiting the blood, sweat, and tears of actual hard working folks. And they probably are one of the main reasons the Earth is dying.
This: Don’t hate the players. Hate the game.
That’s…not what I’m saying at all.
If I lived in a hyperviolent society and some people came up and stabbed my family, I would hate the players and the game.
Yes, but they’re still people. Chances are you don’t live in a slum spending your whole day’s pay trying to get drinkable water. So from someone else’s perspective, you’re the rich gluttonous dragon. I would hope common human decency would allow us to look past all that in a moment of life or death struggle.
