Pretty sure the intention is more to distance oneself from depressing information about an event that has occurred, not about something which can be interfered upon.

I.E. Hearing/consuming constant news about election results when one vehemently opposes the result can very easily lead to anxiety (shown in the comic) and depression, both of which can be damaging to one's mental and physical health.
