I think the idea is that the magical force - the earth, the sun, the universe, god, whatever - cares about every single tiny person and every single tiny being, so yes of course it cares about you too.

I think the preponderance of the evidence suggests that nobody gives much of a fuck about anyone else, let alone any magical forces caring about everyone and everything.

I'd like to think that ineffable something that can be glimpsed at the heights of love, ecstasy, psychedelics, etc, is a kind of magical force that could affect change through the power of tremendous collective care.
