This article hits the nail on the head. I stopped consuming all political, health, and global news the day after January 6th 2021. Pretty much anything that was on CNN/Fox or that half hour after the local news. I never watched local news really anyway, so I couldn’t quit something I didn’t already do in that regard. I just assumed that if there were news outlets fooling humans into doing something like THAT on January 6th in the USA, then whatever I was watching was bound to fool me into doing something outrageous too, and it was time to stop. I first started to consider stopping my news consumption after a certain someone was banned from Twitter. The weight I felt lifted off of me when I didn’t hear that noise anymore was immense. I figured it could only get better. It did. Just like this article says, within a month, you feel so much better about everything. The world around you starts to feel normal. Things just are what they are. Being informed didn’t help me or anyone else. Being concerned didn’t make the world a better place. If something horrible is going to happen, I guess I’ll just be the last to know. And that’s totally fine with me. I hope millions engage in cancelling the news. It could just be what sets things straight in this world.
