    If the news makes you sad, why would you interact with it?

    Ignorance is bliss. Just look at the Buddhists, they live peacefully, couldn’t give a shit and do fine.

      Not all Buddhists are detached from the world. Certainly the ones who self-immolate to protest wars like the US invasion of Vietnam were involved enough to make a difference.
