How are you defying tragedies these days?
"tragedy
Noun
An event causing great suffering, destruction, and distress, such as a serious accident, crime, or natural catastrophe."
Also accident?
The Whirlpool fridge freezer that probably started it are part of a massive consumer safety scandal. whirlpool are refusing to do a recall on them despite causing loads of fires.
Combine that with the flammable cladding that was put on just so people in the area with much better housing didn't have to look at an eye sore and you've got a bit of blame to sling around.
Also you forgot to point out where I mocked it.

I don't see murder as an tragedy. I see it as the actions of an evil murderous shit. It's a terrible loss of life, but it wasn't an accident borne of hundreds of layers of mistakes, it is a distinct evil action attributable back to an individual.
Grenfell was a tragedy.

Ok you re-define the English language in order to fit your world view.
You mind if us plebs still use the word properly?
Also and I maybe I need to make myself clearer here.
"WHEN DID I MOCK GRENFELL?"

Almost like language is a mutable and constantly evolving thing. The US president calls the LA shootings a tragedy. I call it murder.

Ok I'm not going to argue semantics when someones writing their own dictionary.
BTW just had a look round /board for the first time in a while, looks like there were some entries based on Grenfell.
Now i'm going to do something more productive but i'll leave you with my mate Samuel.
