      Old enough to know that casually dehumanizing people we don’t know is part of how we got to where we are.

      We can’t change what the media does, or what society does. But we CAN change ourselves, and choose not to heap our own thoughtless words onto the pile of disinterest that makes the most horrific acts okay as long as they are done to someone else.

        I’m just asking because i get your sentiment from mostly older people.

        Young people are drowned in bad news. Everyday are a bazillion tragedies so they shut down. It is a self preservation mechanism.

        Are you interested in that and those people? Why they are like this?
