You can also read Reddit post headlines, particularly in /r/politics, and train yourself to ignore the ones where the headline is a statement and not actual news. Unsurprisingly, this tends to consistently come from certain fairly biased publications that appear to disproportionately surface to the top there lately (I'm looking at you Common Dreams).

Cutting out all the fluff and focusing on news helped me save time and stress.

/r/politics is basically the liberal version of /r/conservative. I go to /r/conservative to laugh at how bat shit insane they are. Then I go to /r/politics and I see the same gaslighting tactics deployed. It's really unnecessary and depressing tbh. So tribal. My personal persuasion is much closer to liberal than conservative fwiw.
