This retort always bugs me. Making this thread doesn't mean he cares about Infinity War.

I don't care about Infinity War, and making this post doesn't mean I care about Infinity War.

I'd disagree.

Caring is probably a problematic word. "Interest" maybe? "Attention?"

Creating something, either original or in response, is a social/outward marker to publicly classify oneself because something is important enough to warrant the creation of the thing, in the case, the thread. The OP wants to put himself into a group of people that "don't care," because he sees the value in doing that, in effect, caring about the reflection of IW on "the culture" at large.

Someone who truly doesn't care, wouldn't read about it, and wouldn't post about it. Even a marketer will tell you, even if you just click a link, that shows interest. They may lose you at some point, so they'll just retool until they keep your attention. Attention is "caring."
