Their deaths haven’t been confirmed yet. And if they are, the bodies are still warm!

    When the Titanic went down 100 years ago the bourgeoisie leveraged their privilege to escape on lifeboats while the working class were locked in the ship to die as it sank to the bottom of the ocean.

    Now the bourgeoisie leverage their privilege to lock themselves in a tube and sink to the bottom of the same spot of the ocean, and die there.

    Can’t make this shit up.

      Yeah I saw something saying if there was power problems, they most likely froze to death long before their oxygen would be used up

        That’s a somewhat romantic death being able to cuddle up to your partner in a confined space, waiting for either the cold or the great deep to take you. The lamentations and misery of the other families the sound track to the last time you will ever see your partner. There’s something oddly beautifully macabre.

        It’s hot

    What I don’t get it why are people obsessed with the Titanic, plenty of shipwrecks but why is the Titantic the big one? Is it because it’s so far down or is it because of the ship itself?

      @Senseibu @SpaceDogs It’s one of the more well known and relatively large and modern era wrecks. Probably also implications of valuables still trapped inside. It was a top of the line ocean liner and there’s the added irony that it was specifically advertised as being unsinkable.
