Sorry I'm Just Reminded of This

For whatever reason my Firefox started going to Yahoo.com as a homepage so whenever I open it I'm faced with it's news feed. One article was on surfaced atrocities by the Assad government and your typical depressing comments in the comment section, one having several thumbs-up reading "As long as it's Muslims killing Muslims I don't care!"

And for some reason it just kind of threw me back, it makes me wonder if that's the mindset of the average westerner, to literally discount these people as humans, despite what articles like this show.
