Look at everything, never limit your information diet to things that back up your opinion. Challenge everything. If its true, it will hold up to scrutiny. If its bullshit, you’ll find a fuck load of people calling you an asshole, but never explaining why.
You said world, but I assume you meant internet. Social media is hate and fear factory. Main stream media went that way as well. Which in turn affected American politics, and is now doing the same elsewhere. Meanwhile, in the real world, everyone is just being normal. Having fun with friends, moaning about the weather, looking forward to holidays, or movies, or parties, or whatever. Its all very normal when you turn off the hate machine.
