To remain equitable and survive social media, you need a laissez faire attitude of live and let live. If you do not like, or approve of, something that has been posted, turn your eyes away. The cardinal principle to respect is that just as you feel entitled to a point of view, never forget that others are entitled (yes, equally entitled, as a matter of right) to disagree with it!
