Is apathy a right? Do we have a right to apathy?

An interesting response. Is apathy a feeling in the same way as happiness is a feeling?

Let me put it to you this way: How on earth would I compel someone else to care about something? Caring is an internal state. In that way, it's enough like a feeling to be about as externally-controllable as one.

(Not being argumentative. This is fascinating.)
