It totally is. While our awareness of such injustices has expanded, most of the time they arent happening anywhere near us because information travels so much more freely now. But that serves to desensitize us, to make responding with words in echochambers of anger a habit, and gives us more things to be concerned about so it is hard to focus on one thing. The net effect of that is that, when things actually happen in out backyards, we feel so overwhelmed, so disconnected (as everyone else in your echo chamber is physically far from you), and so habitually inactive that, for most, it makes answering the call to action slow at best.

A large part of it is also the self-policing of people whenever any call to non-peaceful resistance or direct action is made.

Violence is not the answer. It's the question. And the answer is yes.
