Not all empathy is good. Don’t waste it on people who wouldn’t slow down if they ran you over.

I don’t wanna celebrate deaths, but it is wild to me how much of a story this is compared to, say, the boat full of migrants that the Greek government purposely allowed to die.

Those migrants were simply people seeking a better life. They deserve far more in terms of coverage and rescue efforts than a couple of rich aholes who spent their money on a tourist trap

I think the difference in coverage reflects more on media outlets and consumers than it does any of the people who died in either place.

A tourist death trap if you would.
