"26 dead in Taiwan tourist bus fire"

"Erdogan ready to reintroduce death penalty"

"Millennials will be first generation in history to be worse off than parents"

"Terror attacks in bangledash"

"Fugitive rabbi wanted for sex crimes"

Why?

Is this necessary?

Are humans this dumb?

Just why?

Can we please just STOP?

Sometimes I just look at recent headlines and just facepalm. How the hell are humans not extinct yet? Is it truly possible for so much to go wrong at once?

It's just shocking. Perhaps we should cut off education and just teach everyone the golden rules:

1. Don't be a dick

2. Don't kill people for no reason

3. No one cares what your religion(or lack of religion) is

4. Stop being an idiot

5. DON'T BE A DICK

Maybe I'm the only one, but my parents taught me to be a nice dude and not kill others _(ツ)_/

If people could stop being idiots we wouldn't have any of those problems. Sadly around 80% of the population is afflicted with that curse.

The muslim religion is the problem and those teaching it, not education in general.

If it was easy to teach extremist to behave, we wouldnt be haveing all these attacks.

You cant reason with them, they are set in their ways and think they know better.

Relax dude, you're young and way too jumpy. The world has always been fucked up. You think 100 years ago or 50 years ago or 80 years ago was any better. But there's also plenty of good in the world too. Bring positivity into the world. 

Never heard the Taiwan one. Was it a terrorist attack?

The truth right here.

You just never heard about the world being fucked up way back then....because news moved at the speed of a horse and a sailing ship and lots of things were just ignored.

I say we just stop covering it in the news. Stop talking about. Stop caring. I promise you the moment the media stops pushing this shit into the heads of people for the sake of using fear to make money, it will either seriously dry up or go away. People do this stuff to get infamy. They want to make a statement. Once this became headline news, it all just exploded all over the place.

And even if it doesn't stop happening, no one is controlling your mind. Turn off the news. Don't go to a news site. Don't listen to news radio. Block anyone on your social media that talks about it. Tuning out is possible if you want to. It's really a much better way to life your life... trust me.

All I know at this point is that smoke started comming out of the bus, then the bus crashed and caught fire. I'm assuming it is an accident for now.

I don't use social media. Also, I only check the news for any good stories(aka close to never).

To be honest though, it's hard to completely tune it out for me. Curiosity gets the best of me and I go around seeing what's going on with the world.

Another great point. Personally I've stopped visiting every single conventional news site. There's literally no good reason to do so, and I've lived a much happier life without that nonsense.
