Most people aren’t happy when they read political news. If you care about happiness then spending less time reading political news might be good regardles whether you are in this community or not.
In general “this is all wrong” might not be the best trigger from a rationality perspective. Asking “What’s the likelihood that this is right?” is better from a rationality perspective. Thinking about whether that probability is 20% or 30% can be much more interesting intellectually than thinking in right/wrong terms.
