Because their politics annoy you?

I let them rant. Sometimes I even give them a nudge just for fun.

No

We may disagree but it's no reason to stop being friends. I welcome other points of view

no and this phenomenon is a big problem IMO. People do not need to be in an ever closing echo chamber of groupthink and confirmation bias.

It all depends on how they express their politics. If they're reasoned, logical points I enjoy engaging. I have quite a few friends who differ from my political point of view that fall under this. We've had some good conversations.

But I do have a few screeching meme monkeys who respond solely based on emotions. I unfollowed them, but didn't unfriend.

Only if their post frequency gets obnoxious. I don't care as much about their message as I do about how often I have to see it.

That's what I do, which is only marginally different than unfriend.

No. Facebook is useless. Occasionally, I'll troll by pointing out their hypocrisy or idiocy but for the most part I just ignore it. Haven't check it in months.

Hell, I haven't seen most of the people that are my "friends" in about 30 years.

ETA: Is "unfollow" the way that their crying doesn't make it to my feed?

If they want to be on face book,it's probably not somebody that I want for a real friend.

Nope, I just stop following them (don't let their liberal nonsense plague my newsfeed)

I hide the very, very few liberal friends I have. I do not go to Facebook for politics. Too many other sources for that.

This. I do not politic at all on Facebook, I use it to keep in touch with family and friends. Part of a couple groups for kids sports and personal interests.

I give people lots of leeway, however when it becomes constant they get the unfollow.
