Proof of most Americans (or perhaps, people in general) being ignorant until something comes to affect them

100 percent. All my friends say stupid shit and I'm like what if that happened to you? "It would never bro"

I recently learned that an austism symptom is a strong sense of justice that is not swayed easily.

I always wondered why i cared so much more about doing the right thing instead if what people think is right or what law says.

Sadly it is a very human thing. Most people are entirely content to ignore anything outside their monkeysphere.

actually i thought of this recently and came up with the concept of a "coherence length" which describes the distance up to which you still care about things ... so if it's 50 km then you care about things that happen within 50 km around you.
