Well it's seems too have worked on me. I have absolutely had it with everyone, concerning such topics on the internet. It's a never-ending circus of non sense. Barely any critical thinking and everyone's biased. Perhaps i engage the wrong type of people though.

That's the thing a lot of people miss: we've always been biased in our politics. We just live in a time where information can be acquired so quickly and the new cycle is so fast that what used to be visible among a person and their circle of influence is now on display for everyone to see. I feel it's very important not to give up and, in fact, to push through the nonsense and think about what logically makes sense to you but also be open to changing your opinions.

Your mistake is getting news from social media. A liberal leaning source such as nyt/wapo, conservative such as wsj, and nuetral such as BBC/PBS is all you need. If you listen to randos you're going to get bullshited.
