Ugh, I am so sorry Laurie
It does seem like something is in the air.
I’m in a fb group with a lot of aggressive people in our area (a bunch of techies). One day one of the admins lost her #%#%, sick of it all and went on a huge, swearing rampage (I don’t blame her at all; I could not do that job). That behavior is everywhere.
I don’t want to exit the group, and I just found out you can block people in the group you’re not friends with. One of my neighbors told me. He was getting mean comments just for asking a plumbing question (I saw it). I don’t know what is wrong with people.
