Thanks for the link. But rate is my point. Having more conservatives on your feed doesn't affect rate.

Rate would be number deleted/number who are friends.

If you have 20 conservative friends and I have 10 liberal ones.......I delete 2(20%) and you delete 12(60%) then that's how your rate is 3x mine.

You realize that example doesn’t contradict what I posted, right?

Why are you friends with a woman you aren’t putting your dick inside of anyway?

So you raped/sexually assaulted her?

I'd love to hear how she tells her friends of how she handled a big bad trump supporter and got him so upset he couldn't text anything....

I have a cousin who is one of those people who decide daily, weekly, monthly, etc., which "gender" they are. I know she is mentally a whack job, because I have known her for my entire life. She was always strange, but a nice person and a cousin I enjoyed hanging out with when we were young and in school. As an adult she is just plain weird and fricking strange. She is obviously bi sexual, because she has relationships with other women, and has been married and had a son with a guy. Now she's back with another woman. That's fine I don't care. But about 5 years or so ago when the trans and gender fluidity stuff started picking up steam she started all of the ranting and raving about her gender and all her shite on facebook. I had to remove myself from that situation. I couldn't take the daily rants and posts on facebook about what ever it was she was carrying on about. We'd never agree if I approached her, so I just let it go and unfriended her on facebook. occasionally my wife will tell me "man your fricking cousin is off her rocker" and I'll know she posted something ridiculous on facebook. That's just the world we live in boys, it's a world of men, women, children, and they.

She isn't a liberal.

She is a TDS-inflicted cult member.

I really miss liberals. They've either gone completely underground and/or become outwardly apolitical, converted to this crazy brand of religious political zealot to some degree like your former "friend," or have abandoned the left and realize the Democrat Party has nothing to offer anyone.

The fact that you think your assertion that having a higher RATE of a thing is caused by the number of opportunities to do the thing is correct.


Hint. It ain't.

It isn’t my assertion. It’s suggested as a possible reason for the higher incidence of blocks by liberals in a study. You have yet to say if it’s the study you were referencing.

The study you linked simply asserts they have more conservative friends.

It does not posit that as the cause of a higher rate and if it did posit that, it would be a retarded assertion.

Higher numbers don't affect RATE as you've already acknowledged.

If my online ecosystem is more diverse than yours am I not more likely to encounter an opinion I won’t like?

She responded, "Oh, sorry. And, I mean I like you as a person and all but I just cannot associate with someone who supports a man as bigoted and dead-set on inciting violence as Trump."


For starters, I would have nothing to do with these people. A simple "Bye Felicia" would have sufficed.

Holy shite dude. Are you fricking with me now?

OK. One more time.

We both have 100 friends. But, out of those 100, only 20 of mine are liberal, but 40 of yours are conservative.

That reality has ZERO affect on RATE. IE..........if you tend to delete 1 out of 5 of your conservative friends and I tend to delete 1 out of 5 of my liberal ones, we will be said to have the same RATE even though I will have only deleted 4 people and you will have deleted 8.

Alas, the studies aren't measuring that you delete MORE than me.......they're measuring that you delete at a higher RATE than me. In face, THREE TIMES more likely to delete your conservative friends than I the reverse.

Hence, that means, based on the studies, that if I delete 1 in 5, YOU delete 3 in 5!

Good fricking God. Maybe this is why you're liberal.

consistent liberals on Facebook (44%) say they have blocked or defriended someone on social media because they disagreed with something that person posted about politics. This compares with 31% of consistent conservatives
