i just honestly just hope those people on the submarine were dead all along like the handwringing is tedious & that amount of money and resources should never have been devoted to going down there & shouldn’t be devoted to saving them either but i just cant think of anything worse than being trapped in there for days & days waiting to die literally horrifying and unthinkable i hope they died instantly

#i dont like to moralise death bc i think its tempting and unhealthy to see death as a divine punishment or whatever #when most of the time people whose death would relieve suffering are the ones who die the least #but also insane to be trying to exact sympathy for everyone for the deaths of privileged strangers #like their families can be sad they died. the public doesnt owe them grief #somethign so unsettling about the people who like demand that everyone around them feels #bad about it....weirdddd #like how many migrant workers and refugees died this week #do you feel grief for them too?#this illusion that you grieve for everyone is so stupid you cant just feel bad for ppl who had the most exciting deaths
