Well, it's a tragic example on how capitalism really ruins things for everyone. The OceanGate drama should have been the wake up call. But it wasn't and these people are dead. And they get infinietly more media coverage than hundreds of souls lost in Pylos.
What a fucked up world we live in.

Perhaps not a conspiracy, but doesn't it say something about our culture that we find it more interesting?
