Protip: dot ml might not like "woke 2.0" for too long.
This just in, ignorance is still bliss
Yeah, but ignorance makes you ignant.
Most of the MAGA sphere spends all day watching all the things the news people tell them to be afraid of. I don't buy this for a second.
Yeah I think I recently have read here on Lemmy that the amygdala is bigger for MAGA, so I think the opposite is true indeed.
Which would also make more sense, because of all the irrational anxieties those scum has...
I believe its called "amygdala maxxing"
You gonna tell me a shit post may not be factually accurate?
Shit but verify, that's been my motto.
Hmmm, how about that. People who pay attention to what's going on around them are less happy then the blissfully ignorant? Wow, someone should look into this and find out why?
It was maybe a month or two ago that an article showed that studies like these - all usually done as surveys - are highly susceptible to changes in input from users, just by word choice. In their example, they showed that if you use terms like 'mental health' while surveying people, a discrepancy emerges between non-conservatives and conservatives. This discrepancy disappears when you instead ask other questions, such as ones about sleep, worries , and fears.
So I don't really know if I overall trust the data on happiness overall.

Simple worldviews tend to be happier. Ignorance is bliss.
Honestly, I am pretty happy as a woke person.
The trick is to watch less news and do more things to actually change anything.
Yep, (social) media is optimized in fueling your emotions, and well the strongest emotions are negative, so it's mostly optimized towards that.
Avoiding this, doing something more healthy leads to a better mental (and likely physical as it's connected) health IMO/IME.
I'm part of a mutual aid group that delivers groceries to people every 2 weeks.
We sometimes get urgent requests on off-dates.
I don't think I can explain how satisfying(?), motivating(?) it was to randomly get off work one evening last week with instructions to buy $50 worth of groceries for someone I'd never met and to drop it off.
To be part of someone finding relief in a terrible situation.
The hardest part was honestly finding a group with flexible opportunities that I could contribute to regularly. Most organizations that ask for volunteers often want business-hour availability, and 6+ mo commitment - ie, good for retirees.
"People incapable of guilt usually do have a good time."
Yeah... there are normal people and then there are psychopaths, who are unable to feel empathy towards others.
I always thought it was funny how tough that steak seems based on his chewing.
I'd argue there's nothing normal about being a well-adjusted person in a terminally ill society.

No shit. it's really depressing seeing all of those filthy pedophiles and nazis getting sexually aroused by dead kids.
and even more depressing watching 2/3rds of Americans refusing to deal with 80 million terrorists in America.

If you aren’t at least a little bit anxious and depressed about the state of the world, you haven’t been paying attention.
I also refuse to believe that all the racist, misogynist, bigoted snowflakes out there are living anxiety free, considering how quickly they blow up at the sight of a pronoun.
Yeah, they seem to be more afraid of shit they made up than anybody else.
Like part of the reason small town conservative types don’t like the ideas of cities is because they’re scared of being mugged.
Life would be easier if I just believed that I am superior and that my president is good, too bad I have a brain 🙃
Having empathy in this society run by psychopaths is depressing and anxiety-inducing indeed.
It bleeds into everything in this whole place. You know when you're using something — a government system, a website, a support line, an application — and it feels like nobody thought about how shitty the experience would be for you? That's what it feels like to live in a society that has no empathy. The people that design these systems do not give a shit about how you'll feel being subjected to them, because they have no empathy and have never considered nor cared what your experience would be like.

Breaking: people with empathy affected by other people's suffering.
Rather be unhappy than live in fear.
Which is what the asleep people have.
