And what about all those murder movies, the horror movies, the gun shooting movies, the extortion murder rape kidnapping etc, crime in general, intrigue, blackmail, scheming? We have a subscription to a package that has a lot of US content. HBO, Fox aka Star Channels. 80s & 90s movies were better, happier. The mood is mostly dark and dire nowadays.

And then there's "news", if you can even call it that anymore. Mostly political propaganda, hate mongering and FUD. I'm in a good mood, then I read "the news". I had a time where I completely ignored them, that was after 9/11 and my mental health was superb. But nowadays the planet is on fire and everyone in power is just starting more fires. But "the news" are also pushing a certain mindset, at least in Germany, although there isn't much difference between the outlets. They all just more or less copy paste the same sources. Paranoid schizophrenic mindset mixed with some Russian hate and foreign hate and radical right normalization.
