  TIL it’s okay for kids to die if they’re privileged.

    I never said that. I’m just annoyed that when a rich person dies, it’s world news and “a tragedy” while when a poor kid or a non-white kid dies no one gives a shit. A school shooting and too man doors are being blamed and it is written off as “collateral damage” to preserve the second amendment but when a rich guy is killed the murderer is being labeled a terrorist and the death penalty is being sought. Steal 3 times something small from the store and get 25 years but scam thousands of people including the government for millions/billions and get 2 months if any at all. Why would I care about a rich kid when the rich only care about themselves. Sure, it’s sad for the kid he got pushed into something completely stupid and dangerous and had to pay for it with his life. At the same time we as the west are still supporting genocide and other horrible war crimes, costing the lives of thousands of children while people protesting this are treated as terrorists and criminals. It’s just a matter of perspective. Most rich kids end up not paying taxes like their parents and getting richer at the cost of others. So when a rich kid dies, I’m not going to care more than when anyone else dies. Especially when it happens by something so dumb as the Titan “tragedy”.

      Those rich people are demanding Trump to take away the health care from millions, so they can get a tax cut they don’t need, and won’t even notice. That kid would have been doing the same thing in 20 years, so I don’t feel bad for him or any of the rest of them. They paid a lot of money for an adventure that would give them bragging rights, and got a bigger adventure than they bargained for.
