Not to hijack the thread, but it's been an interesting experience for me becoming Facebook friends with lodge brothers, and getting a chance to see the part of their personalities I don't witness in lodge. Fortunately I haven't seen anything like the racism or hateful things described by the OP. Suffice it to say that these brother simply share a drastically different view of things like society or politics than I do. I have embraced the opportunity to not put myself in an echo chamber by muting/unfriending them, nor have I opted to let it change the way I treat them in person. I have to say it's been a growing experience in my young Masonic life, even if it hasn't been easy.
