Yes, I agree. I cancelled and purged my Facebook account as it was getting too political. As a hiring manager, I know for a fact that social media is now part of the background investigation for new employees and yes, right or wrong, there are companies that would un-consider applicants who have a social media profile that they feel would be potentially harmful to the company image.

By the way, it's not just politics. I'm also referring to those knuckleheads who feel posting pictures of themselves getting hammered at a keg party is a good thing. What they are in fact doing is limiting their career options.

I post here and a few other places under a pseudonym but even so, I'm careful about what I put out there. Even behind a screen name, you are not really safe from having your real identity exposed - "doxxing" as they call it these days.

I’ve largely abandoned mine since I started sewing and doing needlework. It feels great!
They pester me to post.
It’s a NWO tool-no doubt about it
