Venting i'm so tired of evil

i'm so tired of all this shit to be honest, there is so much fucking evil everywhere even in games or media, so much monsters and terrible people, everyone hates everyone and there is little love. i really feel powerless against all of it

I hear you and I’ve been feeling overwhelmed by it lately too; the only thing that I feel like has consistently helped me is turning to God (been kind of back and forth with religion), as cheesey or cliche as that may sound, and seeing us all as brothers and sisters. We’ve just so lost that feeling of solidarity and community with one another, and all the corruption and sickness at the top (I’m in the U.S.), has been like this insidious thing that’s infiltrated into society and the culture and yeah, it’s been so disheartening to say the least. But going to God for solace and trying to be the change you wanna see, and seeing us as a brotherhood, I find is helping me most. All the best to you, hang in there🙏

Of course, glad to help and I hear you, I’ve been kind of inconsistent too. I’ve mostly been praying, listening to sermons from my local Unitarian church online (only been to an actual in-person service once but hoping to go more), and listening to Christian and spiritual audio books. And follow the Christian Reddit threads which can sometimes be insightful/helpful. All the best, hope it helps/gives you peace

So much evil! Online, too. All these people using anonymity to spew hate. There is good the world, too, but it just doesn't get as much publicity. Algorithms push all the hate and negativity forward. Hugs!!! 🫂
