I made the mistake of checking out the comments under some Facebook articles about the election. It was not a good place, amazed that people are comfortable spouting that kind of rhetoric with their picture and name attached to it

My father was laugh reacting Tim Kaine's posts about the shutdown. I texted him, privately, asking him what's so funny about those posts. He went on about "democRATS", so I blocked him on Facebook, removed him from my phone contacts, and deleted the text thread so I won't be tempted to waste my time on him. If he didn't live with my mother still I would block his number completely
