Been on this planet a long time and never seem the likes thats happening to our world.

What am I missing here

If you're referring to the general condition of the world, yes it is screwed up. But it has been worse.

Yes, it's been way worse.

Stop listening the the gloom and doom people.

Maybe yes, but if we start trading shots with China..... The folks that live day to day after just a few day of hardship we would be living in a different world. Look what has happened in the past couple of years in America. Have we ever seem the likes of trying to find baby Formula for our little ones like last year?? Common sense say try to be ready for anything down the road. Heck, we have a winter storm and all heck breaks loose. Lugnut I try...

I always carry an umbrella....

the depression was worse but the folks of that era knew how to survive..most people today could not provide themselves with safe water...and forget about them procuring food without stealing it.

We are seeing a power play for world dominance unfold.

Too much negativity every where you go, see, or hear .Is there bad people doing bad things to each other today .Of course But that is not new .The GOOD STILL OUT NUMBER THE BAD . If we all wait around for something bad to happen it will . At the same time if we all try to help each other and have the mindset that we try to help those in need of help. That is possible to make happen also .

Just because you didn’t see it doesn’t mean it wasn’t happening. These days everyone everywhere has a camera and an internet connection. It’s not that more bad has been happening, it’s that now the whole world instantly knows about every incident. That wasn’t the case 30 years ago.

Crime is at all all time high and punishment for crime is at an all time low...criminal activity has being made unpunishable in some places...drug addiction/homelessness is rampant some places and that is spreading not going away.

That is reality....not negativity and there is lots more to discuss.

I'm not so sure about that.

Flash, whenever I drop in the Coal Mine I look at the walls and you can see the different things that happened to this world. The LAYERS actually prove that there was Ice ages and extreme Heating. Still it kept surviving!! The Coal we are mining as well as the Oil and Gas they are drilling into areold Pockets of Vegetation that was sandwiched due to Pressure. I am just waiting for the Leftist Tree huggers to tell us that Dinosaur Farts caused the Global warming and that Cave Men and their wheel caused the Ice age!!!

I try to remind myself of this every morning….

I am grateful for everything I have but that does not change the current situation..which is very bad imo.

I guess I just live in my own little world. Other than making a pile of money during Trumps presidency, I haven’t noticed a change. Been life as usual. I quit watching the news and skip a lot of negativity here. I guess you could find something negative in everything if you look hard enough. I just work whatever problems I have one at a time. Half what y’all worry about you can’t fix anyways, so just live!! If you think the world is ending then prepare for it. About the only thing I’d miss is my AC, lol. Everything else we can deal with. Life’s too short to focus on every negative thing out there. Just live your life to the fullest and work the problems when they happen. I’d bet half what folks worry about never come to pass anyways. I’m just over here living my best life with those around me.

There are huge changes all around us. Personally ilike to be aware of what is happening. I still put my priorities first and if I cannot change things at least I have awareness as seen thru clear glass.

Gloom,despair,and agony on me. Deep dark depression, excessive misery,if it weren't for bad luck, I'd have no luck to all! ....Gloom ,despair and agony on meeeee!

Amen

If one is not concerned or aware of the politics around them,.then that one should be void of voting as should non tax payers and illegal aliens.

So what has “being concerned or aware of the politics” changed with YOUR vote?
