HoneyBadger, that has got to be one of the most heartfelt responses - without hatred and bitterness - I've heard since this whole thing happened.
We live in an age where anger, fear and aggression have become the norm. As you pointed out, it dominates the news cycles and can easily pervade every part of us. The only real option to avoiding becoming consumed by it is to avoid it as much as possible. This would result in a certain level of ignorance, which can be blissful but can also keep from falling into the trap of divisiveness that's permeating everything.
