Do you ignore things to make yourself happy? I guess that would explain why you would assume somebody else would. But, sorry to disappoint - I’m not a Republican.

And, no, I don’t ignore even the insane shit out there. What’s the point? Besides, what kind of fucked up system do you use to decide if you’re happy anyway? Ignore shit and it’s still true.

Anyway, I’ve never met a happy Republican. As I said, they’re always afraid and/or angry. So, yeah, not hard to figure out that the study this article is referencing is bullshit. But you do you.

But my claim must be absurd! Cause you know you’re happy! Whatever, dude…

Are you…a nutcase?

Wow, what bullshit. Cognitive dissonance may give the appearance of happiness, but it is a literal hell on Earth. The psychological damage from pretending so strongly to be happy…? It’s not worth it.

And besides, no one is going to convince me that the people that are always afraid and angry are the happy ones.
