I Hate Politics

Sorry if I sound like I'm ranting, but I absolutely hate politics, nowadays with information being so easy to access online, negative news is everywhere, and reading them just makes me feel depressed and lost. I know it's good to be informed about the problems in the world, but I don't feel like negativity has ever helped anyone. What are your thoughts?

I don't follow anything much, I don't read or watch the news, I don't even have FB. Much happier
And being informed, what difference does that make. Unless the leader of your country regularly calls ig

And it makes phone calls better, people love telling u the news and it's interesting if u don't know anything bout it

@Alison Agreed, I deleted my IG for that very reason. What I don't understand is why all the negative news though? Why not something more positive? But I guess it's probably because negative news draw more attention

@RosePumpkin I honestly believe news politics etc is for people who have nothing else to be emotional about *laughs*

Look after refugees, help in a youth group, help with the local food delivery for homeless people whateva and have good friends. Much healthier
