    There is so much evil going on in this world you don’t even have time to process each act anymore. Because there is something else every few hours.

        What am I supposed to do with this semantically corrected information?

        What do you wish to influence by saying this?

        I’m not sure when “things have always been bad” or even “things used to be worse” became a valid responses to “things are bad”.

          They are saying we didn’t start the fire. It was always burning since the world’s been turning.

          The person said that things are so bad now you can’t process it anymore. They’re implying the world is getting worse and that it’s overwhelming.

          The reply is trying to help the person see that they’re responsible for the lopsided intake of negativity, not the world.
