Death is bad and all but I can't help but laugh when it's as a result of such complete hubris. Like Steve Jobs dying because he decided to try and treat his curable cancer he caught in an early stage by changing his diet, despite what every doctor he met told him.
Is that ghoulish? Probably, but at least I'm not dead because I crawled into a septic tank with a porthole cut into it.
I mean mortality is dealt ghoulishly by everyone. On one hand, this was nothing more than hubris and these people believing they were above death. The CEO in that sub probably fired a whole team to pay for this expedition and was going to use this experience to show off to his buddies American Psycho style. The OceanGate CEO thought he was above everyone and knew less than he led. I bet if you took ten people off the street and asked them to go down in this thing, 90% would say, "fuck that," as they saw the Jimmy-rigged septic tank. There is humor here because all of these people's hubris got in the way of actually thinking about the situation they were about to embark upon. But on the other, you got these people watching ISIS beheading videos, animal torture, or Narco torture videos telling us to "give respect" or "the Channel 5 documentary is too soon." Like motherfucker, I have grown up in a time when there were videos of helicopters shooting Uranium bullets at a '78 Corolla and then the segment ends as a Mcdonald's "I'm loving it" commercial comes on. But CHUDs can't think critically. They see war footage and do not give it a second thought. "It's what they deserve" is usually their answer. Meanwhile, all we are doing is humanizing someone who believed they were above it all. It's no different than realizing that there is humor in knowing that these people are all going to end up on the ground and there is nothing they can do. No matter how much money they spend to keep their lives going by having blood boys, making a Metaverse or going to space.

you don't make money by firing people you make money by hiring people and getting them to produce value in excess of their wages
