Related, my mother-in-law recently sent my wife a long, sad, doom-and-gloom text that was so over-the-top that she just texted back Philippians 4:8 and told her mom that she needs to stay away from all news for a while. Lowlights of the text included how powerful the Deep State is that it could cheat its way to victory, how Biden is nominating people who believe no one should live past 75, and that they're going to sell their condo in the mountains (a retreat that brings both of them true joy,) because it will lose so much of its value when Biden destroys the economy.
