"pro-crocodile" and "anti-crocodile"

Let's call it what it is, OK? IMO there are two related matters here:
1) What is the size of the groups you're willing to empathize with? and how much relative concern you feel obliged to show for each - your family? neighbours? ethnicity? social class? compatriots? culture? religion? species?
2) What's your attitude towards social alienation and various unsavoury processes that accompany it? Is it just an inevitable side of humanity, to be ignored if possible? Only to be ignored if you're sure it's not about to explode? A moderately tragic natural disaster? A concrete ethical evil, akin to not helping victims in an accident? A disease of the nation-organism, which ultimately concerns all its other parts? A profane/sinful Awful Thing that's an affront to your preferred Grand Design?
I don't have a clear answer for myself, neither logically nor emotionally.

(Great. You try to break shit down into more manageable bits - aligned with LW's mission, it is! - and there's an instant downvote.)
