      There were also political reasons to keep looking for the submarine even though survival was extremely unlikely

      So you concede to the original fuckin point yet demand we still ignore the obvious and callous disregard authorities and the media have for the lives of workers?

      You have no idea what you're trying to say do you?

      I think rescue efforts should be strictly allotted their resources by how funny and dramatically appropriate it would be if the people in question died. So in the case of the bridge, making an effort would be fine, but they should NEVER have tried finding that submarine and should have in fact shot the people on it if it had returned safely.

        20 years from now some sailor will tell a wild story of actually finding the sub's wreckage and survivors after the news, the authorities, and their families all officially accepted their deaths.

        After quietly contacting the families, the sailor recalls the crew being offered an obscene amount of money to make sure that the knowledge that there were survivors is never made public.

        When asked why anybody should believe him, what proof does he have, he points to the couch were the interviewer is sitting and says, "Thats one of the pillows we used to smother them."

      There was zero chance of anyone being alive in that sub after six days, and there was basically nothing that could have pulled it to the surface from such a depth.

      we can just respect that this is a tragedy and those families deserve to morne without their relatives

      lol, says guy justifying the lack of effort in trying to save those people. I'd rather a living relative than "mourne".

      The others were presumed missing in a submarine until pieces of it were found

      Why were they "presumed missing" long after "obviously dead" is the only logical conclusion?
