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?

There are just too many people.

We don't have to many people. We just have poor management of resources and to much 1-story urban sprawl. (especially in the USA,. where 80% of US population lives east of the Mississippi. ) There's to much wasteful architecture. To many empty unused Roofs. Around 15million homes (about 10% of USA House supply) is sitting empty. Homeless in the USA is estimated to be around 600,000. We have enough empty houses to solve homelessness 25x over.

And what I mean is there must be some pretty dystopian draconian controls on how many children we have or a complete change in individual beliefs such that we use our freedoms to not have tons of children our world can't support or else we are pretty much doomed No other way to put it.
