Don’t you think it’s quite ironic that the subject I’m trying to avoid is being discussed in this post?

    You’re not a bad person. All you can do about it is vote once every 4 years for president and every 2 for your congressman. And being realistic, there’s only ever 2 choices.

    So long as you feel adequately informed, it’s perfectly reasonable to filter out distressing content.

      I kinda wish that there was a website or something full of all the information I need to fully understand the historical context behind everything. Having to read a bunch of disorganized articles is really draining, y’know?

        Using the term “articles” is generous considering the dubious sources that get posted here that conveniently parrots a particular viewpoint. The problem isn’t necessarily an organizational problem, but moreso a credibility problem in the spaghetti that gets posted. Trying to spot the bullshit from the factual is what I find exhausting. OP is right to filter out this content until this platform figures out how to handle propaganda and innuendo federating like wildfire.
