Much like the expose on Neil Gaiman - you absolutely do not have to bear witness to horrible things just to do so. It is 100% ok to protect your mental health and well-being by not reading about horrible things or not watching horrible events. You can acknowledge things without taking on more pain.

I am seeing so many posts on social media about boycotting the inauguration. Don't you dare. Don't you dare turn your eyes away from history, even the awful, scary parts. If you don't watch it with your own eyes, you rely on others to tell you what you saw. We must all bear witness to what's coming
