    It’s just like when the idiots got themselves imploded in the submarine. There wasn’t even a fraction of a second of mourning. Straight to the memes.

      I feel bad for the kid, he didn’t want to go on that trip. But the ceo dumbass dying because his ego wouldn’t allow him to listen to his engineers was excellent.

      It feels like there is more celebration this time than with the sub. The sub was basically a suicide, a death as a result of arrogance.

      This one on the other hand is different. It’s almost certainly an instance of revenge on some level, either for a loved one or themself. And the celebration in turn seems to have responded to that.

      They’ll have to have security as his grave 24/7 to prevent people from shitting on it. And, unfortunately, probably from praying to it.

        Speaking of which, I had recently commented on another website that Trump might be the first president whose grave is assigned Secret Service detail.

        I was half joking at the time, but things you might read about in The Onion have more or less transitioned from satire to prophecy.

        I’m sure the doofwads will set up a 24 hour guard of Cletus, Blermp, and SteveJack waltzing around it like the Unknown Soldier tomb

    He is Jacob Marley. The rest of the CEOs are Scrooge. It’s not to late to change your ways you cold-blooded motherfuckers.

    Better start handing out raises and christmas turkeys or else embrace a life where you can’t show your face in public without rolling the dice.

    I wouldn’t call him a hero. We know nothing about them. They’re just the result of a societal sickness.

        The great thing about living outside the USA is I still get to enjoy the memes, without suffering from what they’re about.

        Mate, the entire developed world thinks America is a joke, and the US healthcare system is a crime against humanity. The world literally agrees that this scab getting murdered is justice because your system is so parasitic and evil. It’s darkly hilarious, and it’s given us all a break from having to hear about Musk and Trump.

        In fact, the only people who think a verifiably sociopathic parasite oligarch getting murdered is wrong, are fucking braindead morons.

    Ech. What ugly, soulless eyes.

    Curious how much this image gives me the same ick as seeing a tapeworm slowly squirm.

    I only recently learn the name of that guy and the name of his company.
    Maybe half of the USA is dancing but certainly half of the world.

      Did you not get the memo? There is nothing outside the US. How else can the winner of a national championship be the world champion? /s

        I do live in a faraway country were the sun barely get down some time in the year, and barely up some other. It was once, according to the folk memory a place full of dragons, sirens and other dangerous creatures.
