Unfortunately I think that's the current state of things. It takes a lot of work to get any semblance of the truth, and even then it's extremely localized. IMHO, C19 was WAY more politicized than it should have been, which caused a lot of the misinformation. For me to be less despaired, I give up on things like national news (or severely limit it), and hang around positive people, particularly ones doing good things in the community. There are still good people out there doing great things. I don't think that the media portrayal of many things is a realistic view of reality in most places.
