Do Homo Sapiens have a As-if-I-care-gene ?

The reason to why I asked is this.

A few month ago I saw on TV two program

I saw both program same day and it was a Friday.

The first one was a movie based on a true story-Title 37
It tells the story of 37 people was witness to a murder on a young lady in Queens 1963 and they didn't do anything to help her even though they knew or most likely knew what was going on.

After this movie I was surfing around my channels to see what's interesting. After about an hour later, I went through my guide and I saw Viasat History had a program called Project Nazi. I marked this

In this episode of Project Nazi, it was Crystal Night as main story.

Now here is what the speaker said-

"Even though the German was horrified at what had happened, they turned their backs on this and continued their daily activities as nothing had happened "

When he said those words(I can have forgot some simple words)
And I remembered the movie I saw some hours before I started to wonder

Do Homo Sapiens have a As-if-I-care-gene ?

I'm sure Germans did not care for many reasons, shock, nationalism, fear, indifference, hate, economy, racism, military mentality, believing without question what the government and media told them. etc. etc. I suppose pretty much the same reasons people today don't care about the 1,000's of drones, missiles, and shells dropped in other countries.

But lets not forget their were many many other Germans seldom if ever heard of who gave up a lot including their lives to resist Hitler and his party fanboys.

It was dangerous to show that you cared in Nazi Germany

True the was many reason to why the Germans didn't care or pretend they didn't

And as Rockstar mentioned there was many who fought nazisme and they did it with their life.

The other story the one about 37 people in Queens 1937..Here there is absolutely no excuse.
