Personally I'm not indifferent about any of this; it's very worrying, but I usually just have no idea what to say that contributes. So I, like most people I assume, prefer to lurk rather than to be vocal and emotional about what's going on.
Besides all of that, the older I get, the more I realise the following two things: #1 that we're entirely in the dark ages of technology (and science to a lesser extent), regardless of the technology we have acquired, because society, governance and the public discourses all seem so very crude - we don't know how to handle our newly found powers and dogmas are still very existent: they've just moved from religion to science and technology; and #2: that the entire ordeal we find ourselves in is wholly inevitable, and, for the most part, much less important than it appears to be, perhaps even insignificant in the grand scheme of things. I don't believe that there is going to be a global doom scenario, or at least, not more than medieval witch hunts and the rise (and 'fall' of sorts) of the Roman Catholic power and influence structure.
Historically speaking I'm inclined to think that the only element of humanity that survives everything that's happened, is human bonding and the forming of relationships and communities. In Roman Catholic wording, I'd say that everything else is a lot more temporal, and also very volatile and subject to change. If that comes across as indifference, so be it.
But that's just how I see things now, so feel free to poke holes in my theory.
