Assuming that social media is an evolution of traditional media.

The traditional media loves to chase negative news (If it bleeds, it leads) and we let that happen (muh free speech!). So it is logical that social media amplified the negativity of society, coupled with algorithms evolution and instant broadcasting the impact is amplified.

Fck around and find out I guess.

Yep, I'm very careful what kind of content I feed my subconscious these days.

Watching news is like begging for nightmares, and most of it's made up anyways.
