I will never get over how barbarically most people act during a disaster. I got so mad hearing the account of that woman who got trampled by another woman.
Yes, I know panic sets in and all that, but I have been in two large scale life threatening accidents in my life, and both times I stayed calm and helped people get up off the ground while evacuating. That's not me being an elitist conkwocket by the way, I am a cowardIy, weak little dumbarse and I'm utterly worthless during a crisis. My point is that if someone as useless as I am can help people off the ground during an emergency, I'm pretty sure most people have the werewithal to do the same.
It's misanthropic af to witness so many individuals sacrifice other people's lives without a moment's thought. I've seen a little old man shoved to the ground by people seemingly determined to throw him under the bus (literally in my case). I've seen husbands abandon their wives and children, and adult children abandon their elderly parents. I've even seen a woman yank a baby back inside a window who was inches away from the outstretched hands of good samaritans on the ground outside, only to thrust her yappy dog into the rescuer's hands instead.
That one really stuck with me. The baby turned out ok, but I often think about that. What if the baby hadn't been so lucky? Imagine not only prioritizing a dog over a helpless baby, but un-rescuing the baby in the process.
