I think the biggest factor is we have media covering everything 24/7 and when the smallest little detail comes out about something bad it's blown way up and made to be a huge deal. It's easy to get sucked into thinking we are in the worst point of history. No political figure can take a shit without some news outlet telling us that's where they were plotting to blow up the entire world.
