Very strong words. Communicated the emotion at the beginning of the Justice League movie perfectly.
The world is torn in strife but people make up excuses to be selfish and 'stick to their lanes.' As you rightly said, I think it's simply because people don't want to made aware of their responsibilities to their environment claiming they have issues. Interesting thing is, if tables were turned, they'll demand and expect help from the community they turn a blind eye to.
There's a saying in my part of the world people who turn a blind eye preach,
Each man for himself, God for us all
Yes, if the tables turn they'd start asking for help and claim the world is bad if they're not getting the help they desired.
Exactly, my friend. Exactly.
