Willful indifference is practiced by most modern men and nation-states. The core premise of measured indifference, which you advocate, is the non-belief of objective morality and objective truth. Recently, some rioters burned major sections of a significant city in China, demanding freedom, democracy, and other cock and bull nonsense. Majority of the nation-states of the world remainded indifferent to the event. 'Murica formally condemned the Hong Kong governemnt, and by extension the CCP, of its draconian and repressive intervention against the rioters.

For 'Murica, the 18th century humanist principles of freedom and democracy were objective truths worth risking further negative economic consequence. For the rest of the world, material well-being was more important over imagined, subjective preferences of morality. Is a society guided purely by material concerns superior to that of a society governed by certain core principles? Is a man who lives without objective morality superior to a man yoked to objective truth? Is moral relativism superior to the belief of objective morality?
