I’m really worried about the state of the US despite being a white male who was I’ll coast right through it. I’ll also accept “I don’t” and “very poorly” as answers

    This.

    News are the reason your mental health sucks ass. The world is doing okay actually if you just look around instead.

      Or if you ACTUALLY care about real news:

      CRIME is at an ALL TIME LOW in all western world

      China and many other countries have taken a billion people out of extreme poverty

      Communist dictators are loosing ground in south america

      Inflation is back to normal levels

      Solar panels and infrastructure IS becoming CHEAP

      Etc

        I don’t think inflation is normal here. It’s still about 8%.

        I wonder whether these positive comments come from those that are well off.

          It’s not. It’s around 3%

          I live in Ecuador and crime overtook us here… There’s some hope tho with new young president taking some action.

          But in general the world is MUCH better as it was in the 80s for MOST PEOPLE.

          unfortunately for those that were privileged before, it may seem untrue. But ask the average rice farmers grandkids if they’re better off as their grandpa was…
