He sends a long stream of political texts all day long
This is a bi-product of watching TV news all day. They keep people spun up constantly. People get used to the feeling of being mad. I wonder if he realizes how good of a friend he has in you.
And lest I sound elitist. Many of us have this issue. It might be Twitter, it might be Nostr, it might be Facebag. It might even be SN. Life is to short to spend worrying about things that are not in your sphere of influence or control. But most of us do it. Some more than others. I know I'm trying to do it less and focus more on what I control. Constant battle to not be distracted by noise.
