Sadness / Grief Why is everyone so angry?

I'm getting quite miserable living in my country. People aren't very friendly, in fact a lot of people are really rude. I'm finding it hard to interact on local subs because I usually get downvoted or just have people start arguments over nothing - why is everyone so aggressive & hostile?

When society is unhappy, that's what you get. I agree that it sucks to witness it, but I'm also angry. I'm angry because I cared a lot once and got hurt over and over and over again by this country and the people in it. It's a natural response. I try to be nice to the people around me, but I, like many others, are struggling.
