John Milton is credited with the saying that: "the mind is its own place and in itself, can make a Heaven of Hell, a Hell of Heaven." I Agree! And so I think it's important to know what to focus one's thoughts on/to.
Making one's sincere thoughts known is a noble thing. However, the extent of alarms being sounded on social media, and some of the positions on non-issues being pointed out as deserving reprehension about this "#NewGambia" can cause one to want to bail out of the implied apocalypse that's about to happen.
But when you look around real life, and do your own appraisal, unbiassing your mind as much as possible, you wonder whether the forecasted dysfunction in some of the criticisms is in fact a stance on principle or just a fit of pique. I just hope we're not inveighing against things to annoy one another, because that'll be so nasty and so inconducive.
