Yeah, I had a good four year stretch where I just had to filter out everything political. I figured it’s better to be ignorant than to be constantly stressed and angry.
Thanks. I’ve been very angry out of a feeling of complete helplessness. I’m reading a book about data bias in relation to gender (invisible women) and it’s hitting a lot of sore points that come up being in an office that’s 10% female… There’s four of us.
I understand. I feel that way occasionally, too, but honestly, I think that’s irresponsible. Apathy and an unwillingness to pay attention to injustice are huge contributing factors to why the world is as fucked as it is today.
I often have to close out of Lemmy for a while when there are too many political posts because I realize it’s just making me angry lol
I’ve just filtered out the political keywords and it’s made it a lot better for me lmao
I’m the same way with meditation subs.
You can block things or switch instance, become a social nomad. The fediverse is your oister!
All posts are political. You mean controversial posts.

I definitely understand; but it’s good that you are angry, because that means you are human.
That’s not true, otherkin are just as if not more angry at the state of the world.
That is the exact face I make right before I’ve decided that’s enough Internet for today lol
And after making that decision, comes the realization that i went to bed like 8 hours ago and have to be in the office in 2 hours sigh
Saaame 😫

If you’re not angry, you’re not paying attention.
And that’s why many people don’t pay attention; they don’t like to feel angry all the time.

I was hoping they could make an AI that would be angry for me.
Aaahhh, there’s the juice.
Yes. I read too many as it is, but sometimes I think “This isn’t educational. It’s just ragebait. No thanks.”
