Depends how deeply you want to look down the Rabbit hole.
You can't trust media or newspapers. So don't.
Any news platform has it's biases so recognise that when viewing/listening.
Try and center yourself.
Try and keep a good diet. Exercise regularly and for yourself.
Maintain a regular bedtime and try and relax before you get there.
You can only respond to how other people are at any given time.
So be aware that their sensitivity to the same issues is unlikely to be the same as yours.
Understand that and appreciate it.
Beyond that, remind yourself that you have no ill will towards anyone.
No matter how dull or ignorant or biased they may come across.
Some
will test every inch of goodwill within you.
And sometimes it's better to just say
Ok. I can tell you find this distressing to discuss reasonably. But you have to recognise I'm not your enemy !
and leave them to it.
