NUMBERS

When numbers increase dramatically, people experience cognitive overload and empathy fatigue. The brain struggles to connect with or process suffering on such a scale, leading to a diminished emotional response. This is why individuals can often empathize with a single, identifiable victim but feel indifferent to large-scale disasters, such as genocide.
