Shocker! Woke people are more likely to be unhappy and depressed according to new study

There is a correlation between being more woke and also being a miserable person. That is obvious and we didn’t need a scientific study to back up that claim. It’s like claiming you need a study to prove that most dog owners get sad after their dog passes away. It is that obvious of a claim.
Nonetheless, the Left lives by their truth rather than this little thing called reality. Which is why we are reporting on a new study that backs up the very obvious claim that there is a correlation between anxiety and depression among those who adhere to the left’s ideology.
According to The New York Post:
Psychological researchers in Finland have created an assessment to help measure an individual’s commitment to principles of social justice and made some surprising findings across the Finnish population — including a negative correlation between progressive ideals and levels of happiness.
Their findings, published in the Scandinavian Journal of Psychology, suggest other Western nations may see similar patterns among their socially conscious citizens.
“This debate was largely data-free and it could thus be considered a worthwhile question to study how prevalent these attitudes are,” Study author Oskari Lahtinen said. “No reliable and valid instrument existed prior to the study to assess the extent and prevalence of these attitudes in different populations, so I set out to develop one.”
Their research trajectory included extensive reading on intersectional feminism, critical race theory, queer theory, and other relevant academic disciplines that inform critical social justice, PsyPost reports.
The report invented a scale to determine the extent of wokeness people identify with. This included the following platitudes or “truisms”:
“If white people have on average a higher level of income than black people, it is because of racism.”
“University reading lists should include fewer white or European authors.”
“Microaggressions should be challenged often and actively.”
“Trans* women who compete with women in sports are not helping women’s rights.” (reverse scored)
“A member of a privileged group can adopt features or cultural elements of a less privileged group.” (reverse scored)
There were seven points and the study revealed that “Three out of five women view ‘woke’ ideas positively, but only one out of seven men.”
Obviously, when your entire worldview is based on the idea that the world will end in 10 years unless the government taxes you into oblivion, of course, you are going to be anxious and depressed. Especially considering that the majority of people who believe that lack critical thinking skills and therefore, tend to be fooled into nearly all asinine causes.
However, the most concerning finding was the relationship between mental health and agreement with the scale. Specifically, researchers found a high prevalence of anxiety and depression in people who believe the statement “If white people have on average a higher income than black people, it is because of racism.” More broadly, they found that those who identified as left-wing were most likely to report lower mental well-being.
When you are forced to be mad about everything, when you try extremely hard to become a victim, when everything about society must be destroyed, of course, it is impossible to be happy.
None of this is new information though. There have been studies that show that Liberal women are more likely to be on antidepressants and they are more likely to be unsatisfied with their lives. There is quite a bit of research on this.
Liberals would be much happier if they just came to terms that there is nothing they can do that will change the world. But as long as they adhere to the leftist death cult as gospel, they will become increasingly more miserable.
