Why does it seem like teenagers killing people is way more commonplace in the UK now? - Lemmy.World

Just one example of many [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zLFKjqzWGr4] I do remember while there were some cases of teens killing people in the 2000’s, they were few and far between, now it’s like you got to watch out for teens rather than adults and there’s a very potent hazard of being killed by a pack. What happened?

Newspapers/websites just want to make money and people tend to read articles that frighten them and/or make them angry. Be careful with what you read/watch and verify with actual statistics.

I put myself on a news-diet and it massively improved my life. Instead of worrying about the world burning and feeling unable to do anything about it, I have much more energy to actually do things I like and/or find important and am also much more able to invest in deep relationships with friends. I cannot recommend it enough.

Important news will get to you anyway, there is no need to check news outlets every 5 minutes.
