it's none of that
it's people preferred to still profit as much as possible from this dying building instead of renovating/repairing it
that is what you get for building a civilization where profit has higher priority than safety of your people
- fennecfoxen 5y agoWho exactly is profiting? It's a condo building, you understand, and most units were owner-occupied. Upkeep was paid by the tenants as part of their condo dues. This is organized by the condo's board, an entity which is operated for the benefit of the condo owners. At best you could say, "These residents lacked foresight," but that doesn't really support your premise that capitalism caused this. Having an ideological axe to grind like this one is a major risk to your intellectual integrity. It can blind you to reality, or worse, it can make it so you don't actually care what is real anymore.
- Shadonototro 5y agoThe people who knew about it and didn't engage with renovations They knew about it and let it happen so insurance can help them with financial support The result of the investigation will be: "natural cause" > Having an ideological axe to grind like this one is a major risk to your intellectual integrity. It can blind you to reality, or worse, it can make it so you don't actually care what is real anymore. Yup yup, i am so blind that i don't even have to work anymore, i abused this civilization and made insane profits, i no longer have to worry about needing money anymore Yup yup, i am blind, i don't care waht is real anymore Yup yup, enjoying my life as a king in thailand
- fennecfoxen 5y ago> They knew about it Again, you're positing this shadowy "they" who somehow saved a lot of money — but the building was owned by the people who lived there, and I'm pretty sure if the condo owners actually knew about the renovations that needed doing, they'd have spent the money to make the repairs, rather than getting crushed to death in their sleep. There is no one enjoying ill-gotten gains here. > Yup yup, enjoying my life as a king in thailand I see. A tyrant.
- Shadonototro 5y agoYeap that's what this civilization rewards the most
- Tehdasi 5y ago> There is no one enjoying ill-gotten gains here. Well if it's found that the construction/design of the building is at fault, then it will be the developers.
- JPKab 5y agoAh yes, cue the moralizing about how selfishness and greed are the root of all issues. Replace profit with Satan and you sound like a televangelist.
