29、。有很多相似之处这两个事件。这两艘船都是奢侈的,他们有一个类似的乘客数量和相同数量的幸存者。最大的区别,野蛮人总结道,是时间。卢西塔尼亚号沉没在不到20分钟。但对泰坦尼克号来说,这是两个半小时。“如果你有一个事件,持续两个半小时,社会秩序将接管和每个人都将表现在社会的方式,萨维奇说。“如果你要下在17分钟,基本上这是本能。在泰坦尼克号上,社会秩序统治,妇女和儿童第一。卢西塔尼亚号上,本能胜出。幸存者主要是那些可以游泳,进入救生艇。是的,我们是自私的,野蛮的方式。但我们也社会的一部分。假以时日可以击败我们的自然自身的利益。一百年前,社会规范(规范),妇女和儿童总是先走。男人是斯多葛派(坚忍的)。
