(58,785 posts)I also just don't read a lot of posts, not so much avoiding the people as just knowing it'll be the same old broken record and/or same old nastiness and dishonesty.

(36,448 posts)The number goes up when the 'outrage of the day' floods the board with the same topic posts, again, and again, and again. Enough is enough; off to the dung heap.

And the "unity" things - nope. Gone.
I just don't read the ones I don't find interesting. I don't ignore anyone either.
