No, that sounds about right. I don't blame others for caring, or think they shouldn't care. In fact, I'm glad they do. But I don't.
> You should care about things that don't directly impact your life -- partly because you can make a difference in these things, sometimes, if you get involved.
Fixing the military industrial complex or some other country's fucked up government isn't really on my TODO list. For better or worse, it's not how I want to spend my life.
