the assault on truth, misinformation and disinformation.
the rise of authoritarianism.
the polarization of poltics.
climate change denial.
jerks getting outraged when people suggest not being a jerk.
rage-baiting for clicks.
- gnulinux 8y agoHow is this random potpourri of global problems supposed to prove your point? Do we have any data we have more problems now than before? According to what basis? Even if this is true, what change does this make, why does this imply we should start praising neutral news just because it's not bad.
- jimjimjim 8y agoa potpourri it may be but it is a response to your question about why I think this is an especially bad time frame. I see no reason not to consider them relevant and I also see them as being indicators that things could be a lot better. Based on this my original comment was a desire to try to increase positivity.
