Whether by nature or nurture or some combination of the two, many people seem to lack compassion and empathy for those significantly outside of their personal bubble. If it was "their people" going through that suffering, they wouldn't stand for it, but as it is, it's someone else's problem. Living in the US, platitudes like "justice and liberty for all" don't hold up to the cold hard reality that it's that person's side versus everyone else. I wonder if we'll ever reach a critical mass of people that genuinely want everyone to thrive and suppress the bad actors that only think about what benefits them.
