DS9 “Past Tense” is a prescient episode in a lot of ways, but there’s one line that I think doesn’t get enough attention: it’s not that people don’t care, but that all the problems they face seem too big to handle.
Having a baby swiped away based on a drug test for drugs the hospital gave you is horrible. Yet, it seems to rate rather low compared to a huge list of other problems we face, and I really don’t know how to deal with that.
