Remember when 4 rich people were trapped on a submarine and resources from a dozen countries were brought to bear to rescue them even though they were very likely already dead? Think about why we don't put any effort into saving poor people on very easy to find boats. https://www.bbc.com/news/world-africa-66528273
More than 60 migrants feared dead at sea off Cape Verde coast

Almost all those on the boat, which was at sea for over a month, are thought to have been from Senegal.

Was not expecting reply guys with the position "no, we should let the migrants on boats die" but here they come.

@seldo you must not have seen Mr Beast’s poll on the bird site where he asked if someone offered you $10k but a random person in the world would die, would you take it? A sickening 44.5% of the 1.89 million respondents said yes.

@adrianacala I have managed to keep my life entirely free of Mr Beast.

@seldo the person doesn’t really matter as does the results of the poll.
