Why won't you feel sympathy for someone who's hurting? Why do you feel that someone needs to fall into a very narrow category to be "worth your time"?
Just because someone doesn't fall into your narrow view of what's worthwhile doesn't mean they're not worth basic human compassion.
There is that aspect of it, but there's also the aspect of writing your own destiny, about creating something you care about instead of just being a nameless cog in an industrial machine putting out consumerist crap day in and day out. Why is the latter more admirable to you than the former?
