I'm "obsessed" with the sub because of the irony, the lack of certification, and all the stupid decisions that went into it. The cause of the sub's destruction is very interesting to discuss. Every time I learn more about the company and the CEO's decisions, I'm more baffled that anyone went anywhere with them.

The migrant boat situation is super sad and not fun to discuss. I don't come to social media to be depressed.

Raising awareness is the second step towards solving a problem. Silencing or ignoring it is counter productive.

It may be depressing for you, but for others it is a life or death situation. Would you want them to ignore your suffering if tables were turned? And let you suffer in silence?

exactly. there's a word for it, for sure, but the idea that a sadder story existing means we can't talk about a more unique one too?
