Rush pointed this out about the need of so many people to be “part of the story”.
But there is more to it, I remember a convenience store video where people were stepping over a person that had a heart attack of something to pay for their stuff. No one showed any concern. We have lost the view that human life is special. Sad.
These people ignore the seriousness around them. They do this with the debt, the loss of rights, their inability to produce their own goods for their survival.
It’s the loss of situational awareness. And, they’re proud of their ignorance.
