If they’re just ignoring and not actively defending, I’d think a little about all the horrors that you yourself ignore. We have a habit, as a society, of picking and choosing an ever rotating array of set of issues to demonstrate our moral rectitude. The natural world is built on predation and suffering, overpopulation and famine; and capitalism triply so. Truly accepting and acknowledging the daily constant terrors of this Earth is having tea with Cthulhu–it would drive anyone mad.
