Because you've grown up in a world where it's normal to be narcissistic, self-important, and self-absorbed. Where watching and commenting on the world is what people do instead of experience it. They even watch videos of people watching videos. I anticipate soon we'll have videos of people watching videos of people watching videos.

For people older and more experienced, it's harder to grasp why people don't HELP EACH OTHER. That used to be a normal thing to do, so when they see a scene where someone is slowly being eaten, or dragged away, or whatever, and someone is just standing there, filming every gory detail, it's hard not to shout in frustration, "Put down the camera you idiot, and clobber that thing over the head!"
