You cannot believe anything you read/hear/see on the Internet even if it seems to be supporting YOUR own point of view. Spend your time getting people registered to vote and helping the GOTV work on Election Day.
Learn from 2016 that those people working to divide our people (and yeah, I mean ALL people) are working for our historic enemies.
We need unity and common goals, not rehashing old injuries nor allowing people to set one group of Americans against another group of Americans.

Just keep in mind the old cliche; who benefits?
