There is only so much capacity for people to pay attention to stuff. Eventually people get numbers to this kind of tragedy. It's a defense mechanism.
That is how it works. Usually.
You don't have the energy or time to be brothered about the atrocities happening in the world, specially when the victims are not relatable to most the "civilized westerners".
You don’t have the energy or time
The system is designed and shaped around you not having any time or energies to do anything that isn't what you are told to do.
I'm sorry I don't buy this.
I say they CHOOSE to not see it for their own selfish benefit and it might inconvenience their little bubble.
They know they are part of the system and that they are guilty AF.
Arundhati Roy mentioned! I love her books!
