Yeah the Charlottesville incident is very upsetting. I understand your feelings. It won't help with the forum but I installed something called Facebook Purity because I'm a lot like you and I get too invested in things I have little to no control over. Facebook Purity basically let's me filter out keywords. In my case I filtered out pretty much everything that is political. But the Charlotteville thing leaked through because it was such a hot topic! But it still helps a lot because it gets rid of all the upsetting BS. Some folks think this is me putting my head in the sand. But the way I see it voting season is over and I don't get to decide if some guy runs his car into a crowd of people or not because he thinks his opinions matter more than people. But I do get to decide if I'm going to get to have a good attitude and be nice to people.
So I got rid of the negativity.
My keywords included Donald, Trump, Hilary, Clinton, Bernie, Saunders, Republican, Democrat, Liberal, Conservative, Libitard, Conservatard, Nazi, Socialist, Hitler, Feminism, Politics
Anyways I was also able to use it to move my friends posts up and whitelist them so their posts don't get filtered out so I can actually enjoy socializing with them and interacting with their lives! It also let me remove that annoying recent events thing which purposely puts the political stuff that's upsetting everyone on the front of it. So annoying I hate it!
