    If it on your own page I think you can delete the posts and unfriend these people.

    Firstly, if what they are posting is causing you distress and/or upset, then do talk about it (in real life) to a close friend, relative, or someone else who you trust. Problem shared can be a problem halved.

    After that, your options are probably limited as follows; (a) if they are posting to your personal timeline then unfriend them, (b) if they are posting to a page which you have created/own then ban them from posting to that page, and (c) if they are posting to a group page of which you are not the moderator/admin, then click the arrow beside their post (right hand side) and pick an appropriate "hide" posts option. This won't stop them from posting but you won't see their posts any more. You can also block them on their personal page. If (c) and the moderator/admin isn't interested in doing anything about the situation then do consider your future with that group. You don't have to stay part of any group if you don't agree with the way that it is being run. It sounds like that group may be somewhere that you'd be better off not hanging out in, and invest your time in other more welcoming and well run groups.

    Lastly, if you are confident enough in your dealings with these individuals then approach them individually and let them know that what they are engaging in is causing you to be upset and some distress. If they respond positively and desist then maybe they are the "nice guys" that the moderators think they are, otherwise a, b, or c above might be your options for consideration and you are definitely better off without them (their posts) or the particular group.
