In the age of Rodrigo Duterte and Donald Trump, social media has never been more toxic. Fake news, flat-out lies and hateful comments now drown everything else in your news feed. But while you sometimes think of leaving Facebook and Twitter for good on account of these, the truth is that you need to stay connected—either because your work requires you to, or your relatives expect you to. Guess you just have to roll with it.
