The State Of Things

I am aware that my personal problems are incredibly trivial in light of current world events.  Just a though that occurred to me after posting that last post.  But that's part of my current stress thingy, why I'm considering (if only fleetingly) seeking more professional help.  The state of the world in general, of people in general is incredibly depressing.  People seem to be so easily controlled by the media.  Why do an awful lot of people blame all Muslims for the Brussels bombings?  I know a good few Muslims from school.  My best friend through primary school is a Muslim.  Not one of the Muslims I know is on the side of ISIS.  Just like that no Christians I know support any Christian terrorists, or the KKK, or the Westborough Baptist Church.  Why do people have to be so intolerant?  Why are so many people so willfully ignorant?  Would it kill people to question the media a bit more?  People need to learn how to think for themselves a bit more it seems.  When did people stop being able to form their own opinions?  Or accept arguments that aren't one hundred percent  in line with their own agendas.  Or should I be wondering around condemning every last person who isn't one hundred percent like me?

And a world where people are taking Donald Trump seriously as a presidential candidate?  In my opinion, that's a dangerous place to be.
