In reddit there was a thread at AskReddit about terrible things that will happen soon but very few people knew about them. It was an anxiety-inducing thread that got thousands of upvotes. So I decided to create the opposite: a thread about GOOD things that will happen and most people are not aware of them. It reached hundreds of upvotes and comments in 1 hour before it was deleted by the mods because "it broke the rules".
Do that again here.
Even Lemmy is in need of that.
People have a scatological obcession with misery and disgrace.
Interestingly, this is a reflection of a natural human phenomen. Evolution taught us to be wary of negative events (being dead is a bad look), and to remember them so they're less likely to get us. As a result, we bias towards negative information because it keeps us alive.
Positive events don't convey much more value than our base drives can figure out (e.g., this food good, can be eaten). So they aren't remembered without effort, and ppl prefer to share info on things that will keep us alive as opposed to things that make life a little more pleasant. It's a shitty system for modern life, but it worked to get us here lol
I didn't see nothing.
