    Imagine driving minding your own business and out of nowhere a jet crashes into you and your existence gets vaporised in a fraction of a second.

      In my city, there’s an extensive tramway network. About two decades ago, one of these trams derailed and crashed into a building containing a bank. There was one casualty: one bank employee.

      Imagine working in a bank and then suddenly getting run over by a train at your workplace.

        These kinds of stories always deeply sadden me. It’s one thing to get run over by a tram close to the tram tracks - the danger is sort of assumed.

        But dying at complete random inside a supposedly safe building where you do some soul-wrenching job is just fucked up. Not the way anyone wants to go.

            He wasn’t celebrating their death, he said it was a shame that unrelated people died.

            Also, these people hate you. They are on a private jet because they literally think you are subhuman for not having as much money as them, and they don’t even want to be in the same room as you. I won’t feel too bad about them dying. That’s not celebration, that’s not tripping over yourself to fellate the people that are keeping you down.

              I’m sorry, in your fervor to demonize people, did you forget that pilots exist?

              And that’s why demonization as a principle is bad. You always end up taking out a few people you didn’t mean to.
