Very little? Does death as a concept mean nothing to you, as well as the sadness that comes from death itself?. You have to point out the actual good, because what is good for someone, isn't always for someone else, but death is an absolute. if I were to list all the deaths (because you know full well what an insane task that is, to go and sum up more data than what you presented). I feel like you feel threatened by bad news from this small talk. You have a different view from mine, this is without a doubt. But trying to claim that every year is objectively a good year each time is just plain illogical and silly. Mirror arguments in this case serve no purpose (because I know most people respond to the last part and use it against the the other person speaking said line). |
I don't feel threatened by the "bad news" of celebrities dying because I don't know them. If Carrie Fisher was a role-model of yours throughout your life that's one thing. I have my role-models as well, we all do. But if she wasn't then why not ask yourself why you feel saddened in the same way you ask why I feel threatened.
For her family it was a downer on their year. For you? Were you her family?
Death is absolute? Okay, it happens every year so please explain to everyone how 2016 deaths were worse than 2015/14/13 deaths. You can't just include the famous celebrities you know. Which begs the other important question. Why would famous deaths be more important than unknown deaths if death is "absolute" how ever you spin it.
