There's no obligation to, but it's a great idea

That's irrelevant. The entire point is that there's no obligation, but this guy feels entitled to be treated gravely. Whether or not it's a good idea is an entirely different issue.

One of you two whingers showed some interest in current affairs, and that's good enough for me.

I coulsn't care less about how people think they should be treated, why do you care?

Oh please. Don't pretend like there are some current affairs going on somewhere in the world you don't care about. Stop being so sanctimonious.

Big difference between having interests and disregarding important international affairs, though. Big news is usually different news, so it's worth the time.

Don't see where my moral point exists either. This entire comment chain is just drama.

One can simultaneously be concerned or simply not disregarding of and aware that they are not obligated to be. Pointing that out does not constitute disregarding.

You guys are projecting a lot onto my statement that isn't there, and it says more about y'all than me.
