RE: Normal Life For Most People Is Like An Episode of Black Mirror

When dealing with such media especially in the evening and at night, one should not be surprised by the psychological effects. Unfortunately, the news, but especially the miserable behaviour of people in public are shaping our psyche. We behave worse and worse because we are circumventing bad news and bad people. Models or positive, structure-forming rituals are lost.

The worst part about this is that current news organizations exist as corporations with the goal not to inform, but to generate revenue through continued viewership.
They don't need to give you anything, they just keep you watching by manufacturing conflicting viewpoints.
It's sad :-(
