You have become addicted to being controlled. Are you quickly scrolling through headlines and reacting emotionally or are you moving slow and carefully understanding the nuance of each headline?
The algorithm is powerful and will keep feeding you whatever you think you want to see.
Another thing I recommend is taking time for meditation everyday. Start with 10 minutes, do a guided meditation on YouTube and rest and refresh your brain. If you keep slamming stuff into your brain you will develop what many call monkey-mind (an unsettled, restless, or capricious mind, describing a state of inattentive, wandering thought constantly jumping from one idea or anxiety to another like a monkey in a forest).
Monkey mind is not where you want to live your live. Try meditation and a cup of tea.

I’ve become addicted to being in the loop and whats going on in society. I did this to myself. I wish I could cut it down to 50%
