American culture has produced a nation of the most entitled, willfully ignorant, shameless, lazy, selfish, bitch made, money worshipping, no honor having insufferable pussies of all time and I wish everyone would just shut the fuck up before my head explodes

This is great advice. You’re 100% spot on.

No matter which side you’re on, expressing this sentiment means some people will tell you that you can’t afford to just tune out the negative news and not care. That things are too high-stakes.

Don’t listen to them. There’s no world in which your mental health and emotional well-being should take second place to ideologies and toxic social media echo chambers. If you find yourself constantly tired, anxious, or even hateful as a result of the information you’re constantly consuming, TAKE A BREAK.

Please put life in perspective, and go spend time in nature, talk to your loved ones about literally anything besides politics, learn a new skill, volunteer at an animal shelter, watch relaxing videos about cooking, the list goes on into forever. It sounds so damn cliche and useless but you’d be absolutely astounded at the results.
