You get to live a happy life and don't care about all the horrible things happening all across the world. You wouldn't feel terrible for children getting killed in a genocide half the globe away, every day. Blissful ignorance.

My response would be no. And I suppose most responses are gonna be no, but I also don't think anyone who already doesn't care would take a pill to start caring. That's an interesting concept to me.

I'm sure that what me caring does to my mental state is far worse than however good is anything it does to anyone else. But by that logic, if everyone stopped caring, how would the world look like?

EDIT: It's permanent. It doesn't take away your emotions, it just stops you from caring about things like wars as long as they don't directly affect you. Just like many people already have it.
