Maybe an example closer to our hobby, when pro exotics fire happened, did you say it doesn't really affect me, who gives a crap?
I can tell you I did not lose sleep over it, I have never had a personal conversation with the people involved. Being in the reptile hobby is as close to the event as I came, but I no doubt generally felt bad for what happened, the lives that were lost and also felt bad for the people who were affected by it. Just a little empathy.
