   importance of guarding your mind and emo

   Which brings me to the next point. How can you tell if you’re being   
   manipulated in a way that isn’t good for you or society at large? For one   
   thing, if a piece of news or information results in you being disgusted or   
   hostile at a vast collection of    
   other people you consider to be on the “other team” politically speaking,   
   you’re probably being played.   
      
   Irrespective of where you stand on the ideological spectrum, most people   
   aren’t saints or sinners, we’re just flawed but decent people trying to do   
   the best we can. Any news or commentary that encourages you to despise a large   
   group of other humans    
   simply because they vote differently, or come from a distinct culture to your   
   own is generally not doing you or anyone else any good. Any time you find   
   yourself triggered in such a way it’s important to be as conscious as   
   possible of what is happening    
   and why.
