How is this any different from the genocide in Darfur or other regions? We turn a blind eye to the massacre of MILLIONS OF PEOPLE and then this one drunken guy in a bar is at least given newspaper space while other WORLD NEWS are not? Isn't this something to ponder about.

Yes, you have a point. The point I was trying to make was that apathy is rampant in our society - also on a larger scale.

Coverage or lack of is also a sign of apathy. When one man does indeed get a small snippet for the apathy of bar attenders about his death (not to mention these people are drunk), does each individual death around the globe get equal coverage? True, horrendous global events get coverage, but not nearly enough that it deserves. It is the communal lack of apathy that spurs this lack of coverage, and then more coverage of less important newsworthy events. It's this terrible cycle.
I didn't make a point anywhere about "saving the world". I can't save the world. You can't save the world. What's the point you're trying to make? Perhaps you better get off your high horse of cynicism and assumptions. How ya doing, buddy? |
