gollark: I'm not saying that they shouldn't care, to clarify, but that people don't, telling them their preferences are wrong is not really a winning strategy, and the lack of concern of most richer countries for poorer ones reflects most people's demonstrated attitudes.

gollark: (also, global prosperity is generally going up, illiteracy & extreme poverty going down, etc.)
gollark: Anyway, I find those "various people die of easily preventable deaths → capitalism bad" things unreasonable. I suspect most people don't actually *care* about random people somewhere dying, given the fact that you can quite easily donate to very effective charities for e.g. helping fix malaria under the existing system, and yet nobody does this.
