    Skimming 4chan random a couple of months ago, there was a post on the worst of India. One picture was of a train route with a few tracks and a half dozen people strewn dead across the ground. It was impossible to tell the circumstances, but they were clearly dead and broken. No one cared. All the surroundings were business as usually and no one was responding or concerned. By the way things looked, some had been there for awhile.

    Nope. Fuck that. I want nothing to do with such a pathetic amoral society. I will gladly miss my connection out of respect for life, anyone’s, everyone’s. I care about you digital neighbor reading this now. My slight inconvenience is not worth more than your life.

    It is probably very difficult to transport a dead person post mortem, and lessening that journey for your family is important too.

      out of respect for life

      The fuck does that even mean? They’re dead, no life.

      I care about you

      your life

      We’d be dead & not giving a fuck. This “care” seems more about yourself than others.

        A previous poster answered the situation definitively. A medical professional needs to declare someone as dead. There have been several cases where a person looked dead but was revived.

      Ah yes, 4chan, the pinnacle of unbiased moral discussion and verified news. A beacon of truth and honesty.

      Agree with your respect for life sentiment tho.

      Yeah unfortunately for you I think the post is bullshit. People die on planes all the time. I mean, enough for airlines to have protocols for it.

      They used to just put people in first class seats with shades and a newspaper but apparently that was “insensitive”.

          I mean the video is from before 2016 (as that’s when Stephen left QI) and in the part where they’re saying that, they’re quoting something which was already a quote, and it begins with “many years ago…”

      The more people there are, the less they value each other.

      It is simple supply and demand, which we are all still subject to, regardless of our belief of being divinity.
