      Really? In the history of the world, there hasn’t been a time more safer, healthier or better for mankind then now.

      Don’t stare yourself blind only on the scary stuff. That’s what the media wants, to make you obedient, scared and consuming.

      Instead, why not engage and talk with people? For every ugly person in the news, there are 100 good people in real life.

      Break the cycle of negative echo chambering. Please.

        It depends on what you mean by “ugly”. Seeing so many people worldwide vote for harsh xenophobic policies made me realize that I consider most people sort of ugly.

        Perhaps they are just afraid, but it paints the real world picture. I don’t think people are good or bad inside, just egoistic. Me included.

        Still I try to see the good in people and I tend not to whine, but I do understand the pessimistic views.
