It’s not evil. And if you’re in a western country (America, Canada, France, England, etc.) then it’s not really that fucked up either. If you stopped consuming the news (which is geared to make you anxious and scared so you keep watching/checking) then you’d have no idea that the world is supposedly falling to pieces. The average person you come across is going to be good. Maybe not perfect, but good. Keep that in mind instead of focusing on the bad people & make sure you vote.

hey man, pretty understandable if you don't watch the news, but go ahead and google "Jeffrey Epstein" for me

I’m already aware of that situation. The bigger question to ask is what can you or I do about it? I’m not a federal judge, I’m not in the FBI, and I’m not part of the Trump administration, so I can’t release the unedited files and I can’t put Trump in jail. So why would I hyper focus on that? That’s why you’re miserable and feel that the world is terrible. The only realistic option I can do is protest, boycott, and vote at relevant times. I answered the question that was asked.

I didn't ask you to do anything about it, but saying things aren't that bad and it's just the news trying to stress you out while an international pedophile conspiracy involving hundreds of powerful people who will escape all consequences is unfolding before our eyes? that's pretty wild to me

You’re talking about a situation in one country when they asked about the world. Compare everything going on in the US right now (inflation, ice, Epstein coverup, etc) to the situations in places like Haiti, Somalia, Gaza, etc. like literally stfu with the whining pls. I can wake up, go do whatever I want, say whatever I want, and have no worries here as long as it’s not illegal. There actually aren’t any laws that I want to break so as it stands, my life is great.

??? that's so far from the point? of course our lives are great, we're fortunate to be unaffected by this shit, but saying lol well it's worse somewhere else so no need to let it bother me is just psycho

I’m not worried about being murdered, jumped, or raped the second that I step outside of my house. There are places where that’s a legitimate concern. And I’m black yet I live in a city where yeah sometimes I deal with micro aggressions but it’s not something that causes me undue stress all the time. I’ve lived in Arkansas (state where the kkk originated) and it was the same way. Life is good, people are good. You can focus on all the bad

Or you can focus on all the good. Either way your actions will have effectively zero weight on the Epstein situation so go ahead and make yourself more miserable I don’t really care!

I said consuming the news constantly will only stress you and give you a pessimistic view point. Remember that most people are good hearted and to exercise your right to vote. That’s not controversial, you’re just pressed that it’s not aligning with your pessimistic view point.

The poster asked how I cope in this world and I answered. I blocked #1 because they just want to argue and I’m actually happy in life (maybe because of my approach to how I view the world….) so I have zero desire to keep going back and forth. This is the internet idk y’all and you don’t know me so this arguing crap is pointless. If you disagree then ok idc, make your own comment with how YOU handle it.
