Theyre in a funk because theur country is going to hell and friggin idiots are at the helm.
i would guess it also has a lot to due with the fact that Trump, for four years, had this country going in the right direction and the people knew it. Add to that the fact Trump won in a landslide and the people, we the people, know we got taken.
They're pissed because commies are trying to destroy it.
On the mountain I am great... off the mountain not so much. I get so frustrated at the stupidity of the people out there. :cursing: :cursing: :cursing: Toy
People have forgotten how to drive too! Speed signs are kind of a suggestion, not the limit, but try to drive on divided highways... sort of close to 55mph, or pull over if +40mph scares you & let other's pass.
Maybe staying HOME (watching too much TV), has narrowed people's ability to get the bigger picture, so they're less aware of the surroundings? Spending an afternoon in the woods, sitting still, watching & listening to the wildlife might help them focus on details & still see the whole picture? Hunting really teaches you a lot about self-control and observation.
All in all, the mental health of the nation, is directly related to how much time is wasted in front of a TV, IMO. The networks produce "programming", subtle mood and re-education, PC education, gas lighting, trying to normalize the unacceptable. Something tells me, the people producing this garbage - don't watch it, they'd be bored... like looking into a mirror, they see themselves.

So focused on ONE object, they're unaware of the surroundings.... that's scary.
