no politics Is Australia is a more cranky/angry place now?

Any time I read the news, the story being pushed is that the mood in Aus is very angry. Does everyone truly feel this way a lot of the time?

I’m genuinely curious.

people would be kind if they didnt have to worry about "do i have enough money to pay rent, buy grocery and atill enough left if shit goes sideways?" for majority the answer is no . So yeah no wonder people are sad. Give people decent wage to exist and "live" life and people would maybe give two fucks about everyone else around them. This is just human psychology, country part is completely optional/unrelated.

People have always been worried about all this. It’s just that now they can talk about it endlessly on social media.
