I can’t look at the news, people get so high and mighty when you tell them you avoid politics.
“You’re the reason why there’s so and so ruining things!!”
“I guess you don’t care about your future huh?”
“Yeah go hide in your hole”
Bitch, I have HEART PROBLEMS from stress, I literally cannot be absorbing that shit. And even if I didn’t have this problem, fucking leave it, it’s not your business how people try to cope in this shit hole of a reality
To clarify though, the news isn’t really politics. The news is theatre.
I agree that people can live their reality how they want but it also has to be remembered that everything is political so if you avoid politics it’s hard to complain when things aren’t going your way. Particularly if you live in a democratic system.
This video by the UK’s Electoral Commission always sticks in my mind about politics

I havent watched the news in like 20 years. I feel quite calm. Whats the point of worrying about news when you cant do anything about it?
You can still get armed and ready. You could be ready to save a person you love’s life. That’s something you can do about it.
If you live in the US, I guess you can? Its pretty hard in Europe to get armed. :)
