Climate warming, far right rising, democracy eroding, huges setbacks un humain rights, hate crimes exploding, biodiversity dying, activism more ans more criminalized, etc…it seem society is living its last moments, and doomerism looks like the only rational option. So what prevent you from being a doomer despite all of this ?

    It sounds like you’re trapped inside a media bubble that’s feeding these positions and stories to you. Don’t confuse the stories people are talking about with your own life.

    There’s always been crappy stuff going on. There’s always been amazing stuff going on. The human race is not dying. Some stuff gets better, some stuff gets worse. If you hyper focus on all the bad stuff and outrage that the algorithms are shoving down your throat then you’re going to get pretty crappy. It’s like trying to live off of sugar.

    Retake your agency and live your life; be yourself. Don’t go crazy obsessing over yet another doomsday scenario someone is spinning for clicks.
