Rafael Perez: Americans really need to relax and stop taking national politics so seriously

^{Published on 2024-11-30 14:30:31 - Brian Stokes, N@N}

This is a time to appreciate your loved ones despite whatever flaws you believe them to have, so retire the pitchfork and relax a little bit.

The article by Rafael Perez, published in the Daily News on November 30, 2024, argues that Americans need to relax and not take national politics so seriously. Perez suggests that the intense focus on political divisions and the constant outrage over political issues is detrimental to mental health and societal harmony. He points out that while political engagement is important, the level of vitriol and polarization has reached an unhealthy peak. Perez advocates for a more balanced approach to political discourse, encouraging people to engage in local community activities, spend time with family, and focus on personal well-being rather than being consumed by national political battles. He emphasizes that by reducing the emotional investment in politics, individuals can lead happier lives and contribute to a more civil society.
