    The French comment made me think of this:

    (At least, it happened in France).

    I think the proletariat have earned the right to take a shot at the bourgeoisie.

    I don’t disagree but when it’s done to get money, feels a little backwards

    Lol. They’re literally The Workers Tap; worker owned and operated, shared profits. As if the billionaires would have done anything differently. Are you criticizing the “news” outlets for running this story continuously and profiting on the viewership? Fuck off! It’s capitalist gold!

    I chuckle at the jabs in this thread and still feel like this ad is a bit shallow, that’s all. Never said anything about news making money off news

    I’m guessing it’s not the worst way to go, imploding, that is.

    Rather not have 48 hours to think about what it’s going to feel like. Probably pretty solemn in there splitting up those last couple sandwiches.

    It was financial suicide. Got it.

    Apparently the Titan was the only manned submersible that assesses the integrity of its structure by diving deeper and seeing what happens, had a built in fuck around and find out feature

    Is he a dot, or is he a speck?
    When he's underwater does he get wet?
    Or does the water get him instead?

    Reporter asking if the Coast Guard could recover the remains. What remains can you find after a 2000 PSI implosion? Teeth?
