I'm chocking up the poo hitting the fan action in families now to the rough Sun/Pluto opposition right now. I've noticed extreme strain happening every year when the Sun transits Cancer, sign of the home and family. (Also the sign of the United States, and this is why some stress takes a political/governmental form.) The effects can be painful, if there are many family conflicts to resolve, but the effects are usually temporary.
Less temporary are the effects of Saturn making its last pass through Libra, sign of relationships (including those with family members.) If there are people not meant to stay in your life after this fall, when Saturn moves into Scorpio, they will probably leave for good (sorry.) Saturn is hard to boss around.
In non-astrological terms, the ignorant rightwing freaks are continuing to freak out, I think, because of the continuing political, ideological and economic pain their kind are in, with parties who have no answers for their fears. (I'm seeing a lot of this on the left, too, frankly, though I would not, repeat, not compare our behaviors to those of rightwing Republicans.)
I think these might be family ties you will have to reevaluate, if they are making you feel this awful. Here's hoping it get better.
