Picture window into Dante's Hell.
Teens mock drowning man.
This kind of thing crops up periodically. The story about 32 New Yorkers watching Kitty Genovese being murdered without intervening or calling the police back in the early 1960s come to mind, albeit that story has been debunked.
With the Kitty Genovese story, the blame was ascribed to the alienation of living in a large city.
On this one, you have to wonder about social media which trains people to treat other people as deracinated and abstract objects of entertainment. People say horrible things on social media that I can't imagine them saying face to face with the people they are talking to.
The audio is brutal.
Perhaps, the teen-agers didn't understand what was happening, but teens raised to see themselves as heroic would have done something.
