You find world news interesting? For me that's the most boring subject anyone could possibly bring up.

"Oh, Trump's being a prick again? Didn't see that one coming. Oh, people are fighting and killing each other again? How surprising. We're still killing the planet and almost all the most prominent people in the world only care about stock prices? Shocker."

I'd rather discuss literally anything else.

I think the point is that it's interesting in the "this is getting more frightening, we're at a precipice in human history" sense, not the "wow, now this is a new atrocity" sense. Considering it really is what everyone is focusing on, can they be blamed for wanting the interesting news to be, I dunno, more life affirming perhaps.

Or were we just too bored with the news having to dig for, or contrive, frightening material
