It's all nonsense.

As long as my bank account, 401k, and my day-to-day isn't changing for the worse... they can keep up all the BS.
That's one circus I won't buy the ticket for anymore.

And when Trump wins again, they can keep up with all the stupidity, as I don't think it really affects us all that much if we don't allow it to.

It's damaging family and friendships at this point, it's time for a cleansing.

I guess.... if you allow politics to ruin family ties and friendships, your politics aren't the problem, you are.

My family is a tight as ever. And my friends are all good... So I dunno.

But I don't have hundreds of "friends" on a facebook page either. I just have real people that I actually know with a lot of differing opinions about the political landscape and we don't allow it to divide us.
Weak people allow division within their homes. Where your opinion is more important than your familia bonds.

But I agree, there are a lot of people needing cleansing. A good way to start is to remove yourself from social media in general. Also, keep your politics to yourself for the most part. And then perhaps turn off the main stream media (this includes Fox for people who like to act like they aren't part of the problem).

It's done wonders in my personal life and my mental well being.
