See, this is why I'm on news boycott. The bill hasn't passed but it's insanity that it would even be introduced.

The real challenge in a political news boycott is to avoid reading such articles when they pop up on sports related websites.
I have started to peek in on facebook, but have gotten heavy with the "hammer" in terms of users that post something inflammatory, they get dropped from my news feed immediately. I think facebook is part of the 'creating anger" problem in the world and am not confident it will ever stop.
I have held strong on my twitter boycott. I do miss the sports update aspect of twitter, just not enough to create a sports only twitter account.
It's true that political news leaks through sports twitter and websites. I've had to drop sports people from twitter due to too many political re-tweets. But still a lot less political reading than I used to do before the election.
I also check in on Facebook occasionally, maybe once or twice a week, kind of with one eye closed! From my quick looks, it seems like the nastiness has gotten a lot less on my feed. Maybe everybody is worn out from the BS.
