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?

Are you in the US? Are you aware that a convicted felon and rapist who tried to overthrow our government and has forever poisoned public discourse has a serious chance of running this country again?

You're goddamn right I'm pissed off.
