There was a debate on facebook about how Trump is handling the Coronavirus situation. There were many people debating, but it turned into a group of far leftists bullies strong arming the talks and started insulting everyone when their debate fell apart. One of the individuals(happened to be a black woman) was calling everyone racist for supporting Trump. I pushed back and basically said I'm not debating with losers that lower their debate that much that they resort to those kinds of tactics.

I later got a message from one of the bullies asking me if I would like him to message my employer to inform them that I was "calling a black woman a loser" and "How do you think your employer will react?"

Is this just the new normal now? I immediately put the bully group on block on facebook from the debate. I also went one step further and looked up their accounts on linkedin and blocked them there as well. Is there anything else I can do about this situation? This is pretty absurd to be dealing with.

Print out the entire FB thread. I'm guessing you were called worse? If so, context might be very important. Not an attorney here, but hey - common sense.

Sounds like targeted harassment. I don't have a facebook account but wouldn't that a violation of the TOS? Does facebook do anything about that?

Facebook will only do something about it if the person being harassed is a leftist.
