Yes, the boat hit the iceberg, but putting children in lifeboats is destructive to their psyche

Yes, the boat hit the iceberg, but putting the children in lifeboats is the most destructive thing imaginable to their psyche. It's time for us to stop all this evacuation talk and just complete the voyage.

Yes, the first 7 watertight compartments are now flooded with frigid North Sea water, but it's time for us to stop being ruled by our fears and get back to our normally scheduled travel. We MUST open the shuffleboard courts on the lido deck.

Look at children's faces when they're in lifeboats. They're frightened. They're confused. They don't want to be there. Their parents don't want them there. We need to put them back on the boat, whose deck is now pitched at 90 degrees.
It's time to declare this sinking OVER.

Look, I too want to survive this sinking, but I look at how people insist on wearing constrictive life-vests and taking to life boats and I sympathize with those who wants to spend their time drilling holes in the hull. Better to show this ocean we don't fear it than to cower.

Do you know what a full evacuation of this sinking ship will DO to our scheduled arrival time?
The cure can't be worse than the *glub glub glub*
A.R. Moxon @JuliusGoat Jan 6
Wow, there is a lot of drowning on both sides of this evacuation issue.

I don’t think people shoving their children into lifeboats understand how cruel they’re being.
Lifeboats are terrifying. They indicate a ship about to sink. What a terrible message to send impressionable children.
A.R. Moxon @JuliusGoat Jan 6
We need to trust parents as the true experts. Parents understand exactly how much sea water their child can swallow, and what their child’s core body temperature should be. It isn’t our place to shove our opinions on drowning down their throats.

What you alarmists in your lifeboat bubbles don’t realize is ordinary people don’t care about life jackets or buoyancy or physics, and when you talk about those things you sound out-of-touch.
Lifeboat isn’t real life. Go outside. Touch grass. Or seaweed; whatever’s down there.
A.R. Moxon @JuliusGoat Jan 6
If lifeboats work, then why are so many people in lifeboats still getting cold and wet. Answer me that.

The pro-evac crowd needs to improve its messaging.
Don’t call me anti-evac, that is a slur as bad as any that has been used in history.

Soon we will be forced to wear armbands to identify ourselves, like this one that I am wearing right now, which I made and put on myself, while I harass the crew, for trying to help.
