Odd, because my wife and I are like that, too (except we haven’t clicked the “don’t show me posts like this”). We are apolitical on FB. How could they label me “conservative” because I like landscape and bird photography? They got me write, but 180 degrees off on my wife. I guess it all balances out.

Interesting you don’t even rate a “Politics” category.

Most people wear their hearts on their sleeves.

FB aint new.

Data mining is old as the hills.

I worked HARD to achieve that. #1 - I have no desire to waste time and get aggravated on FB - life is too short; #2 - If I made even ONE political post, I would risk offending someone who shares an interest in the art that I devote most of my free hobby time.

I have never made any internet political posts using my real name either - started with “nomes de guerre” in 1996 when I first went “on-line” and have never stopped the practice.

To me the most wonderful thing about the Internet (which, like so many other, has now been largely ruined) was - its anonymity ....
