It made me realize that “important events” are meaningless empathy theater, with the goal of desensitizing people until they care more about random folks dying on the other side of the planet than about the person sitting next to them on the bench.
- threethirtytwo 6mo agoIt’s almost theater to care… the car accident rate is mass slaughter on a scale that dwarfs every school shooting on the planet yet nobody gives two shits. A lot of it is posing.
- Arodex 6mo agoSo, of course, after that "realization", now you do care about the person sitting next to you on the bench?
