U.S. hits new low in World Happiness Report

Would be interesting to see happiness segmented by Democrats/ Republicans.

I would speculate Republicans are wildly happier when "their team is 'winning'" and Democrats would have a boost in happiness with Democrats in power, but nowhere near the swing of Republicans. Democrats, IMO, are more aware of the *real* current and longterm problems the US faces while Republicans listen to whatever Republicans say the "problems" are - "problems" that are too often very outlandish and not based in reality.

Can you give me a specific problem that is not based in reality that republicans discuss?

Republicans routinely discuss:

- Trans people being an issue.

- Gun problems being an issue of the person holding the gun or gun related deaths being a necessary evil - evidence from practically every country on earth with strict gun rules shows otherwise. Less guns = less gun deaths full stop.

- Climate change being fake, chemtrails, Geoengineering, weather manipulation.

- Science, particularly medical research being fake. Covid vaccines being harmful, etc.

- "The great replacement theory"

- White genocide in countries around the world

- Jan 6th not being an atrocity.

- Ending non-existent wars.

Among many others.
