I can't find a single place without politics and pessimism. It should be easy to differentiate between conspiracy theorists but lately, I have been finding it harder. Every thread here results in accusing companies of wrong doing even when the evidence isn't quite clear. Other places like reddit and blogs are even worse.

While I understand there must be politics in every day life and it is inescapable but the issue and discussion seems to go round and round. I am not finding anything insightful from any political discussion online. Is it just me? I feel like most things come down to people wanting to have enough resources to live happily. If they just had enough money, most of their problems would be solved.

Is it selection bias that commenters on the internet tend to be more depressed/lonely?

Has the demography gone down in age which results in lot of shitty behaviour like witch hunts and trending non-issue outrage? Young generation seems to like these and they especially love twitch from what I have seen. Maybe an impact of that?

What do you think is the biggest reason for the current condition?
