Liberals are younger than conservatives, and I'm guessing younger people are more likely to block, unfriend, etc than older people, who have more stable and mature relationships.
Do you even understand how statistics and statistical analysis work? Even if the sample as a whole followed normality assumptions, that small cohort is impossible to generalize findings about. Thus findings concentrated on that one subset of the sample are empirically dubious at best.
Funny. Everytime I see a story on the news about a politician opposing a Gay Rights bill/policy/etc. I see a big R next to their names. Or do gays not count? Blacks don't count either? Oh so liberals are not tolerant enough of racist overzealous bigots? Yes. That must be it. Damn us liberals.
less tolerant of ignorance? that sounds about right. the term is called "suffering fools gladly"- something these libruls aren't willing to do why waste your time when someone keeps posting about their half breed Muslim president?
This X 100000 I try to be very open minded but for the life of me I cannot understand why conspiracy theories seem to be so pervasive today. Why in the world do people think everything is so government coverup? Occam's Razor folks. Sorry there is no illuminati, muslim extremists, mob, or society of stonecutters running healthcare, government, etc. Get over it.
I share what to me is a particularly compelling video of Joe Strummer and the Mescaleros. Don't like Joe Strummer? Cool. You upload yet another video made by some loon in his closet backlit by a reading lamp he put on the floor ranting about how Obama is the antichrist and he's funneling our tax dollars to a secret society in Namibia as a part of an elaborate plan to control the palladium market. Fine, I finally de-friend your ass. Now do you see how it works?
My only inclination would be to think back on all the threatened or admitted placements on ignore lists. Let's see now who are the ones doing that and GLOATING.... :grin:
Or, to put it another way... Conservatives are older than Liberals, and therefore generally less tech savvy. They also often have poor eyesight and have trouble finding the block, unfriend, and hide buttons. As a result, they prefer to yell loudly at the computer screen out of frustration.
I defriend anyone who talks politics on Facebook. I don't really care what some bimbo I used to work with thinks about gay marriage. I just want to see her bikini pics.
