Political Rants in your Facebook feed - more Leftist or more Conservative?

[KC4]

Too much feminist shit on my feed.

 

[...]

Mostly right-wing garbage.

 

[...]

Places like Memphis or San Antonio, where steak is plentiful always spawns conservative men. Coincidence?

Bro, you've never been to San Anto have you? I'm putting my money on "no".

Leftists are much more vocal, and willing to take their ideology much further, because it is hardly ever challenged.

Agree to disagree, just look at the tea party people. They're more vocal than Jesse Jackson in Ferguson or a feminist at a anti-rape protest in a college quad.

Liberals. It's not even close. 95% of millenials in my area lean to the left, most to the far left. I'm a moderate, and sometimes it is pretty painful to read. However, most of the shit they post is meaningless gay-rights and equality stuff. As if people will start a war over gay-rights, all while the .1% is siphoning money from the middle class and creating a huge underclass.

If you consider yourself "moderate", I would like to read what liberal or right-wing mean to you.

My facebook is full of funny videos, there's the odd leftist article here and then but I think most of my friends are too busy living life.

 

[Phoenix]

100% leftist.

Or at least it was. Now with the 'unfollow' option, my feed has become almost 100% neutral. So about 30% of my fb friends are unfollowed.

I used to get a lot of lefty SJW crap until I started blocking it. Now it's all innane bull.

I don't associate with those people anyway. I look forward to the day I can post RoK articles and say how awesome they are.

 

[Lemmo]

Left. Almost everything in Commie-Fornia, NY, WA is leftist. The South and Texas are the true bastions of the right. I always noticed a pattern. Places with weaker men, vegetarian men are always left. Places like Memphis or San Antonio, where steak is plentiful always spawns conservative men. Coincidence?

Memphis and San Antonio conservative? Memphis is basically a Southern Detroit and San Antonio is almost entirely Mexican. Both are as Statist and Democratic and you'll find.

I've been thinking of openly mocking millennials by posting my diatribe on debt serfdom. Then again, it's probably not a good idea to burn bridges of people in my age group. I'll suggest to them that maybe going back for another degree isn't a good idea when their first degree didn't help unless you're going to a Harvard or MIT caliber school.

It's mostly leftist, the only exceptions are:

1) A guy who believes in 9/11 conspiracy theories and shares gun rights memes.

2) A friend of mine who is mostly centrist but is critical of feminism and trannies (he's a Rogan follower).

3) Another guy who's just a lunatic who posts about "uppity women and minorities," but he's literally fucked in the head.

4) Me.

Then there are at least 30 other people who talk about politics frequently and they're all various shades of left, most not extremist but a few very extremist.

 

[FrenchCanadian]

I follow a bunch of Libertarian groups, like the Mises Institute & FEE... but my actual friends are unfortunately - major lefties.
& I don't bother arguing, they have little economic knowledge and can't conceive thinking out the box.
It's like the gun debate... they don't take the time to analyze and reflect upon it. No analogies, no research... It's white or black.

When I tell someone I'm against gun control... they automatically turn on their brains to the '' SO YOU WANT KIDS TO HAVE ACCESS TO GUNS???'' mode. Same with most social programs. Anykind of program that has to do with family or whatever '' OMG HOW CAN YOU BE AGAINST FAMILY???''

 

[Sonsowey]

Worst I had was pro-israel nonsense from leftist people who, unsurprisingly, were not bothered by Israels slaughter of Gazans over a murder comitted by people from the West Bank...

 

[el mechanico]

I see cats and tests like which flavor ice cream are you and not too much politics as all my friends are retards.

 

[Meadowlark]

I don't keep people who post leftist bullshit on my friends list.

 

[Orwellsboot]

It's 75% Kevin Sorbo (Right winger / idiot) and 20% this American guy ( left winger/ idiot)I met years ago in Scotland.

The other 5% comprise of other Aussies, Thais and New Zealanders. Americans talk disproportionate amounts of shit when it comes to politics.

 

[blacknwhitespade]

I have a lot of white people on my facebook posting white guilt type stuff, the ferguson riots, white police brutality, Trayvon vs The Zimmer, etc. I grew up in a hip hop town, went a high school full of Eminem wannabes. Many of my friends also come from Christian church circles, a place where whiteguiltism is on the rise. I also have some SWPL types and a few die-hard lefties who post all sorts of leftist talking points: income inequality, pro-choice, pro-LGBT, pro-Union and rants about the tea party, voter suppression, corporations, racist white cops, "the republicans are racists waahhh", etc. It really tires me after a while.

 

[DannyAlberta]

i'm canadian. ergo, most of my facebook friends are canadian. the culture of canada is extraordinarily leftist and "progressive" (even here in my home province which is supposed to be less so).

you do the math...

 

[kaotic]

Surprisingly I've got a mix of both, I'd say it's pretty dead even.

There's 2 major liberal trolls on my feed and a few right wing trolls.

Both blowing smoke up each others asses in flame wars on posts.

I rarely post political shit, I keep it to myself, unless someones went full retard.
