Is it possible to be indifferent (Stoic) to the idea of modernity?

What if i do not care about the world of isms? Can we be both modern and non-modern without confirmation of the idea of modernity? What your thoughts?

Reply to Warren It's possible to be indifferent to anything. There are no rules to what we should believe. What I find more interesting is people who think they care about ideas but are really just going through the motions.

We even should do it. If humanity has changed through the years is due to being indifferent because of modernity. Now, it looks like no one wants to change and it leads in a loop of modernism which is so strange.

Assuming these terms denote real things that actually exist and that we should care about?
