Post Secret Extra Credit

I chose the picture that says "I cried for Anakin Skywalker in Star Wars Episode III...but not for the tsunami victims."  The implicit statement is that we have lost the ability to empathize with people who we don't know personally or who we've seen their life story.  I think the author is probably a person who lives from away from the tsunami victims and isn't directly involved with any tsunami victims.  There isn't very much textual support because it is literally just a fact.  However this statement leads to assumptions.
