We have people of all persuasions doing this. Anyone who gets too obsessed with politics needs to take a break from the news. Because the average person has about as much impact on it as he does on the weather. And obsessing about politics is not any healthier than obsessing about a movie star or a sports team.

Actually, there are millions of people like this. They’re just not that interested, and have better things to do with their lives.

I’m sure it’s a real head-scratcher as to why his taxes are going down.

My GF blocks all news. Unless everyone in the office is talking about it she has no clue until I tell her.

Actually, I am kind of on this guy's side. Most news today is trying to manipulate you emotionally. "Triggering" someone is a victory to the press. I really think it gives people mental health issues, and certainly makes them more politically polarized. Unfortunately he incorrectly assigns Trump responsibility for his feelings, rather than those who are trying to manipulate his feelings.
Back in the mid 90s I turned off my TV, and eventually gave it away. I like to read the news at Free Republic, because it is just words written in black and white, as non triggering, non manipulative as it gets. I still know what is going on, but due to the nature of FR, I am supposed to have my own opinions about that is going on.
If it makes him happy, let him be.

Is he really that different from people who say they haven’t watched TV or gone to the movies for 20 or 30 years?

That was one of the things Jacques Ellul said in his book about propaganda: the people who think they are most informed, may just be the most programmed and propagandized.

At right. He's got 'snowflake' written all over him.
To: Kaslin
He’s not too disconnected to virtue signal his disconnection.
To: Kaslin
I wish all leftists would follow his example.
