So much negativity. The goal is to get everybody at each other. It is to depress. It's the old thousand cut tactic, which btw can be used for weal or woe.
We are barraged by negative messages. There are abundant examples such as social media, where a title/headline states a supposed truism. It may or may not be. But it implants that thought in mind. I find countering a good idea. It's a soft form of hypnosis/mesmerism.
The object is to tear down foundation. It casts aspersions planting doubt and of course, to pit people against one another.
Be a rock. Do not shift. Be resolute.
Detractions and distractions are many. Concentrate on truth. Discern.
Learn to examine.
Mind you, history is rife with reality -s-. One of my teachers said that the older one gets, the less black and white things are. Greyer lol.
But, there is good and evil. There is your discernment.
Add.
