i can’t speak for the others who responded, but for me it’s the i-don’t-have-a-dog-in-this-fight perspective that they have because it’s undeniable that the people they’re enabling are causing this fight; but they’re completely dismissive of the pain and suffering that their behavior is causing as if it didn’t matter.
it’s a bit like how liberals become upset at conservatives for not giving af about something until it effects them. people who hold the not-my-problem attitude that op holds will eventually feel the effects; but they’re such an overwhelmingly large portion of western society that iwe’re all going to feel the effects when it happens.
Privilege definitely plays a part and it’s not blissful ignorance , it’s willful ignorance – they’re choosing to ignore it and calling the people who won’t ignore it tankies.
And the smugness that the willful ignorance creates isn’t helping anything either.

That makes sense. It definitely takes a certain kind of privilege to be able to live with and afford such a blissfully ignorant stance.
