I have “unfriended” or blocked at least three dozens on FB, some of them family, some I’ve known for decades. Don’t give a ratsass. You come out as a Leftist, you’re gone.
FB was, in its origin, a college website that was supposed to link up students; it grew exponentially from that base. So it’s no wonder that the site tilts Leftist.
When you think about it, FB is like FR. There are threads and pages that Freepers exclusively hang out on: the Canteen, the Hobbit Hole, the Undead Thread, and others. Same with FB. There are great people to meet here, and there are f@cktards as well. The one advantage FB has over FR is the block function; you never have to deal with FB’s f&cktards ever again.
I keep getting "Friend requests" from people I knew in college. Out of curiosity, I clicked on the Facebook page of one of them. When I saw his favorite TV show was Rachel Maddow, I ignored him from then on. He still sends the requests; but it ain't gonna happen. Trouble is, once you "friend" an Obama supporting commie, you start getting posts from their like-mindless friends.
