I need help, please. I follow a woman on Youtube. She does wonderful faux gemstones. She invited me

[debm55]

to her FaceBook page, I went in and didn't see any tuts. The craft page said it was to be
apolitical. So I went into a room with Christians for Trump, nazi signs and church signs. I read messages about Fetterman-mean nasty posts. I replied to them and their posts of him being an empty suit. I told them they were the most Unchrist like people I have ever meet. I unfriended the page. But first left a message that Walker was the empty suit.
This morning my mailbox is full of Nasty, hateful posts about me, and Fetterman. How do I get out of this? I want nothing to do with these people. Today someone asked me why I am so concerned about Walker, when I live in PA. And that Congress is not a hosptal not a rehab center. There were lots of others. Some coming from me that I did not write. I did not have a stroke as the poster stated, I had a concussion. When I went to FaceBook many years ago, it was simply a forum--it did not have rooms Please tell me how do I get out of this hell hole room and or her site.

1. So sorry 😢

[debm55]

2. Is there a way to get out. Some of the things that they were fighting to me about I never posted.

I orginally went there, I found out what it was, I made my post, unfriended and left. But today there are posts with my name that I did not write.

4. Step away from the computer

7. I haven't replied since that first time and it was only 2 post. I just wanted to read her tutorials.

I didn't intend to talk just get ideas for clay.

5. Send their email rants to your junk folder and block their email addresses.

3. This happened on Facebook?

I would block the page AND the the trolls.


I don't know what else that you can do but block them and possibly report the page. It sounds like this room is mostly infested with russian/rw troll bots.

[debm55]

12. I do't know about russian trolls but defiently RW nut cases

6. Block the page and report to FB the messages and posts as abuse

You can block people on Facebook. Here's how ---> https://www.howtogeek.com/292867/how-to-block-someone-on-facebook/

You can also Hide posts. Don't respond to the posts by writing anything back. That only lets them know that you are reading their crap and encourages them to keep going after you. No response to them and eventually, they will find another target to vent and project their ugly hate on.

So sorry, your peace of mind has been disturbed. Try to see it as a lesson learned and an opportunity to practice patience until the jerks find a new target. Nothing lasts forever. Eventually they will go away, like clouds rolling across the sky.

8. Oh, I don't plan to go back to her site, there are other posters to get tuts. I never went back to

FaceBook since they changed their forums. YouTube has an great variety of polymer clay tuts. I will stay off pf FB.

9. I follow Ludmila Bakulina, Yvonne Williams, Jessama, and Kalyana

But haven’t run into any of that on their YouTube channels or Patreon pages. I’m in a few FB groups as well, but not their FB pages and haven’t experienced any issues.

Did stop following Bakulina for awhile after the Ukraine/Russia conflict started.

All of the ones I’ve mentioned have good detailed tutorials on YouTube.

[debm55]

11. Thank you friend, I follow Jessama, Bakulina on YouTube, I will look for the others you mentioned.

Don;t you have to pay for Patreon? That;s why I didn't join, Also like Joanna's Corner and polymer clay tutor on Youtube.

15. Yes, Patreon does cost, but I allotted myself

$15/mo to spend on different Patron people I follow. I’m in Jessama’s $5/mo category and Yvonne’s lowest level (I think it’s $1/mo). I also am a member of a couple of Halloween DIY home haunters at their basic level, so $15 stretches pretty far. I figured if I wasn’t working from home, I’d at least be spending that on either a lunch or the snack/soda machine.
