So like, are the corpo social media sites forcibly showing me these brainrot idiots defending the UnitedHealth CEO and condemning just the assassin. Or is it that the base majority of users on these sites are just that lost in the rot?

Entities that scarry us carry the weight we entrust them with. Growing to accommodate it.
A man sees a wolf. Deadly clows. Hungry beast.
Daisies see playful whiskers, a kiss as soft as a breeze. A free spirit dancing through the forest.
"It's like… my head is filled with something black and gooey, it takes up all the space, all the energy.
I try to force myself to do things, to see people.
But it exhausts me so much, it drains me out…
And it's often painful, I can see that people are angry with me."
~ Mirion Malle, in "That's how I disappear"

Depression is when we don’t care for anything. We want to stay under the duvet. The duvet is comfortable. We would like to get out of it but we only have the motivation to stay warm.
Depression can develop into a disinterest for the world. Smiles appear bland, uninteresting. Pleasure and displeasure become indistinguishable, leading to a progressive anaesthesia of emotions.
