THE CARING LEFT
Australian actress Delta Goodrem is 18 years old. Last week she was diagnosed with cancer .
Lefty blogger Matt, at A Bright Cold Day, wasn’t interested. He was so uninterested he had to write about it :
There needs to be a word for the almost total disinterest I have when a celebrity contracts a fatal disease or suffers a tragic loss.
I have a sneaking suspicion the Germans already do. The word would be distantly related to schadenfreude - in the sense that it concerns the misfortunes of others - but with bemusement in place of malice. Of the 400 people who will get Hodgkin's Disease this year in Australia, we will choose to care passionately (using column inches as a proxy) about Delta Goodrem.
This word's definition would need to leavened, however, by pity. Pity that a millions women's mags and newspapers will be sold with Ms Goodrem's sallow, bandana-clad head on the cover. Pity that Ms Goodrem can pose for that photo willingly or a paparazzo can take it for her.
Hmmm. Matt is usually more civilised than this. Tim Dunlop -- who recently accused right-wingers of a lack of compassion for arguing with the views of Brian Deegan, father of one of the Bali dead -- responded to Matt’s post:
Does "ennui" fit the bill?
Several other lefties left their suggested words (including “apathy” and “anomie”) in the comments to that post. The fun -- and the evasions, and the changing of subjects, and the denials -- began when I added this line:
Bet none of you would say this if Cathy Freeman developed cancer.
Freeman is an Aboriginal celebrity. Go read the rest of the comments . They are instructive of a certain mindset.
