Oxygen might give out today for the 5 people in the sub.

There are five missing on the OceanGate Titan sub:

OceanGate CEO Stockton Rush, British businessman Hamish Harding, father-and-son Shahzada and Suleman Dawood, who are members of one of Pakistan’s wealthiest families, and Paul-Henry Nargeolet, a former French navy officer and leading Titanic expert. An interview with Stockton Rush from 2018 shows that a woke mindset can be deadly:

Guy sounds like a Class A horse’s ass - and tragically others may be dead because of his virtue-signaling arrogance.

So the silver lining of the story is that no one can call them racists.

That was 2018 five years ago. What he said and what he actually did might be different. Running out of oxygen is an imaginary problem meant to keep people interested so they will click links counting down the speculative last minutes. They are already dead. Greenhouse gases like carbon dioxide will suffocate them long before oxygen runs out. They probably got swept away in a current and are nowhere near where the search is taking place. They are already dead. Sorry.

Actually, I think the silver lining is that he got himself killed for his woke BS. Downside is that four other people died with him.

Whatever about the woke engineers, I am more interested in the angle of the very rich people on board.

Watch it wash up on a beach sometime down the road if it didn’t implode.

He used a $49 video game controller to run the sub and refused to obtain government safety certification.

I feel bad for tbe boy, but the other passengers clearly assumed the risk.

In the future we should require operators to post a bond to cover rescue costs. Taxpayers should not foot the bill.

Most likely imploded. So we may never find them.

One of the comments to the linked article included the following insight into Mr. Rush’s attitude toward safety:

There’s no voice communications with topside because Stockton Rush, in his interview with Teledyne, said that he was tired of being interrupted from topside with update requests which is why chose to go with the Data Acoustic Modem that would transmit the position and depth of the submarine continuously so that he could enjoy his submarine ride.
