The farther away and more abstract the problem, it's absolutely more difficult to get people to care. Trying to get Americans to care about what's going on with prison camps in Xinjiang province right now is difficult, if not impossible, outside of the subset of people who deeply care about the issues involved.

In this specific example say we do care, then what? What will it change? (Not theoretical change, actual change)
