    That same old argument comes up everytime somebody get an RIP thread.

    At the end of the day Steve Jobs is an inspiration to me and his products made my life better. Yes, every death is tragic and nobody's life (with some exceptions) is any more valuable than anybody elses, but the fact is nobody in Libia, regardless of circumstance, has produced antyhign remotely as cool as the Ipad

    But they did in my lifetime and that is a fact too. They are transforming their world.

    And more importantly 'Jobs' never tried to make the world around him a better place, he was just a businessman. He just had very good propaganda. He died because he was sickly. He was like any businessman, just pushing his product.

    I can honestly say that his ideas don't bother me at all. I don't use any of his products and I think it is all part of modern societal mind rot. Let him die and his family mourn, that is quite enough.

    I could never mourn that. 'Ooh he designed my cell phone?' What twaddle.

    I disagree. That the guy dies and that the media talks about it, fine, but why don'T they make many articles about those who deserve attention, not those who need absolutely nothing? I hate the glorification around it, the guy had a vision but he was a greedy fatfuck capitalist who's genius produces are among the most toxic you can find around (and this is well documented). I don't care that the peeps, soldiers or civilians who did die around haven't produces useful stuff (yet absolutely not necessarily) like he did, that doesn't make their life any less valuable.

    Now big H, show it down your booty and post us some of your lovely porn treasure, you havent post nothing on that side for quite a long time and it disappoints me greatly

    My point was not about the media, but about this site. Everytime there is an RIP thread, somebody comes out with the "their life is no more valuable than anybody else's" well, of course it isn't, it's just a thread of appreciation for somebody I admired and I ain't got time to start a thread for every person that dies every tenth of a second around the world.
