      How is that delusional? Blocking out stressors is perfectly reasonable. Yeah you miss out on some relevant news, but lower stress might be worth it.

        No, were on social media, which means anything you do that’s good for your mental health is neurotypical delusional malicious bullshit

        Can’t block out reality forever, as I said some of these things are very much going to affect the majority of people whether they like it or not.

          I have to eat three meals a day, but I don’t walk around with a plate of food all the time

      Why are you so fixated on what others want to see in their Lemmy feed? I see politics everywhere else, I don’t want to see them here, I may start blocking as well

          Someone who didn’t care at all wouldn’t bother to comment and call someone delusional then proceed to reply to every following thread, I think fixated is pretty apt

            We have different definitions of fixated then, friend. I consider replying a matter on carrying on a civil conversation, but I’ll note that it can also apparently be a sign of fixation.

      Just because it affects us doesn’t mean everything has to be about it all the damn time. Besides, it doesn’t affect us all equally.

      You know that there are at least several people in the world who are not Americans, right?

        You know that the US is a leading world power that can affect other places, right? I’m not even in the US, myself.
