In Which I Spout Angrily About Other People's Anger
If you want to feel a real sort of despair about the state of humankind, just read the comments section of any article or video posted on the internet.

ANY article or video. News, opinion, lifestyle, fashion, motherhood... doesn't matter.

It doesn't matter if the commenters are for or against, there is plenty of stupidity, hatred, bias and anger on both sides of every issue. It doesn't have to be about politics to get people riled up, it can be about anything. There are plenty of people willing to hate and abuse people they don't even know about almost anything from their choice of swimwear to their weight or their child-rearing abilities. The internet has become a place for unhappy and emotionally unstable people to take it all out on strangers. It is the easy outlet for misplaced anger.

This is the real problem with society. Humans are just real jerks, sometimes. Failure to recognize that is what makes some people think that humans can solve global problems when they can't even stop hating one another over TikTok videos.
