In the early days of FB I just willy-nilly accepted every friend request from anyone I went to high school or college with. I didn't
realize how many of my old classmates went on to be ultra-conservatives, until I started dropping the occasional political think piece.

Every time I drop an anti-gun rant, or criticize organize religion and/or conservative media, I see my friends list take a hit.

Good riddance, although I do wish some of them would stick around, just so I can continue to piss them off.
