rip in pepperoni 1 guy that died today

oh wait there were thousands of people that died today for several reasons way worse than this.

forget i'll probably die by getting lynched or kidnapped and diced into pieces or mutilated in a car accident or spontaneously combust and blow my body's chunks everywhere and you forgetfaces wouldn't give two stuffs about that while some dipstuff who got ebola dies because he went to africa during a crCIA and you'd make a thread about that because it's loving sensational

oh yeah RIP in pizza africa tourists

Oh right, because death is so common I guess no death is a tragedy. Thanks for enlightening me.

you got it m9

no

the point is that every death is a tragedy so focusing on one is bullstuff, especially when it's just sensationalized news propaganda #buzzwords

i mean if we're gonna talk about deaths, we should have a death megathread where we post every news-published death recorded in the day.

like seriously, if no one covered the story, no one would care except the people directly affected.

I bet if the shooter weren't Muslim, this wouldn't be getting so sensationalized.

no death is a tragedy lol

You both are morons. Take off the tinfoil hats and realize that this is international news because there were shooters effectively rushing one of Canada's parliament buildings. If two shooters rushed the U.S. Capitol building, killing say a marine sentry on the way, it would be international news. If they were rushing a 7/11 in Nebraska it would not be news...

And the whole idea is that every death is a tragedy, so when you hear about one you should treat it as such. As opposed to just shrugging it off because thousands die every day and you're to edgy for the mainstream media's hard on for sensationalizing tragic events. Get over yourself.

Oh you're right. I posted this thread to get attention. Sorry about that everyone, move along.

To me tragedy depends on perspective, and a certain set of criteria which really boils down to one question. Did the person who died have any emotional connection to me? If yes, then mourn. If no, then continue life. I'm not trying to be 'edgy' it's just how I do things.

well technically speaking it is a tragedy because by definition tragedy is an event that causes suffering and so every death generally does that to some person
but in the long run and im speaking strictly on my personal beliefs on the derivative of our species and scientific context, no death ultimately matters and yes i mean everything from this soldier to something as edgecore as 9/11

I think the Ferdinand family would disagree with you.

That's literally all there is to what a tragedy is.
It's not "technically" it's the exact and literal definition.

people these days have a way of interpreting words in ways that would make your actual star fish clench
so i mean technically in the sense that seeing as how tragedy is subjective and could mean anything from dropping your peanut butter and jelly sandwich on the floor to having a family member kill themselves, i went w the textbook meaning
