Does anyone else feel apathetic; you don't care about what goes on? Like the troubles in Ukraine. I feel I should care about, but I really don't feel like it.

*meh*

I think You should actually care only about those things that are important to YOU - not things that You should care

everyone means noone

I can't be bothered to do most things in life. It makes me a CBA sort of person. The shrugging of the shoulders comes easily.

I think debate team is making me more apathetic twards world issues than before. i used to feel passionately about it all, but now i have to look at it from a rational, research-based POV. it's all very tiring.

I completely understand you there. Generally i am pretty apathetic about a lot of things, unless the topic in question is something i'm particularly expert on, but sometimes i really wish i could change it. I get so jealous of the people who have lots to say about everything and it also makes me question my motives for even wanting to converse in such a manner....Hum.

I care. But not enough to be upset about it constantly, unless it's just been in the news/told to me. Sometimes I do feel bad about being like this, but it takes a lot to shake me. It's those rare things that really make me care. I agree with Manji, debating in General Studies, and constant balanced-POV essays take the fire out of your opinions.
In short, don't feel bad (so ends my babbling)

I fall by the solution to all problems:

"There is no problem so complex or difficult that it can't be solved by massacring everyone even remotely connected to the problem"

I'm so disgusted by the state of the world sometimes that I wish I could be apathetic. I mean, I really wonder sometimes why I care so much about things that don't effect me (immediately, at least). But not so. I am constantly in a state of righteous indignation. It's very tiring. But apathy is too easy. How can you not be passionate about things that effect you and those around you?

I'm with artist on this one. Things bug me and I wish I could stop sometimes. It'd do wonders on my blood pressure, I'd wager. I will say, though, that my anger is usually more localized then things on the world scale.

I like your attitude Xeno

I don't think it's always about not being passionate towards things that affect you, but more that you can't put so much effort and enthusiasm into every single current issue.
To be truthful, i really know nothing at all about what's happening in Ukraine so i'm guessing that it can't be affectly me directly at the moment, and there are other issues i'm far more interested in such as the current state of our government.
I'm trying to broaden my knowledge of world issues, particularly in politics because i'd very much like insight into those things that i know very little about. I can understand people being passionate towards things of this nature, i wish i could be myself, but sometimes there just isn't enough time to worry about everything.

Apathy is what keeps me going, i dont care about anything so i have nothing to worry about. i know its not really a healthy lifestyle but...i dont really care.

There are some things I care about, but I usually turn my head away from the ignorant bickering my the media. Its usually depressing.

Perhaps our apathy stems from the fact that there is absolutely nothing we can do to change the situation.

Maybe, but if everyone's thinking that, it explains why a lot of stuff has been allowed to happen *cough bush cough*
