Ok, that’s fair. It is very hard to tell these days who is paying attention but overwhelmed and who is saying “this is all bad news, so I’m going to ignore it because I don’t like hearing about bad things.” The latter is the dangerous attitude. I’m glad it isn’t yours, but unfortunately Lemmy is not free of it.
It’s not “because I don’t like hearing about bad things” but rather “I am focusing on what I can control instead of what I cannot control”.
It’s a strategic move to maximize the good you can do for yourself and your immediate environment instead of dwelling on all the bad things happening to each one of the 8 billion people
