I agree. I really wish we could collectively lay off the media consumption, especially the culture war stuff. I disconnected from news and social media a while ago and it's amazing what a contrast there is between my perception of the world now vs. then. If you go down an ideological rabbit hole, it seems like the whole world is about to come crashing down. Then you go out and experience the actual world and most people are happily going about their business. I've come to start thinking about media (and specifically our extremely high levels of media consumption vs. the past) as a distorting lens which prevents us from perceiving reality accurately.
