I'm strongly considering taking a break from the internet for a while. All the politics and hate being thrown around at everyone everywhere is starting to get to me where i feel grumpy most of my waking hours.

    Honestly, being on the internet without going insane is a feat in its own. I genuinely think it's made me a worse person overall.

    My honest opinion is you should get a grip of your life if a bunch of electrons can ruin your day. These are pixels, not deciding factors that should so easily have a big impact on your life if you see something you don't like. 

    Pretending that hate and politics, two totally different things, don't exist is the completely wrong way of dealing with things IMO. get involved and be a part of decisions that actually matter in society.

    ..............seriously? this is precisely why I'm thinking of doing it..... the constant bombardment of politics and people screaming at each other over literally anything anywhere you go on the internet doesn't help anyone. I'm fucking burned out on it all.

    In today's "society" no one listens to anyone else that doesn't share the same opinion, no mater how much you debate, and no matter what facts are provided. they will vehemently deny it and call you <insert current go to label so you dont have to listen to them> ie Libtard, NPC, cuck, racist, sexist, ***phobe, nazi, alt-right etc

     

    No where did I say I was pretending they don't exist, i'm saying i need a break from all the goddamn negativity.

    I tend to avoid most social places on the internet like the plague because people are bad. :P

     

    Your best bet is to be selective like _StrikE_ said.

    I wasn't "bombarding you with hate" you opened up a status update clearly wanting feedback, and I gave you my opinion. Figurative actions shouldn't get you down. Don't take what I say as hate, geesh.

    i wasn't saying you were. i was saying everywhere you go it's nothing but hate, politics and negativity.
