I don't mind her, actually I think she's really nice, I just think she could have kept it to her FB friends.  That and the fact if any rando came in and posted somewhere about asking people to help her win 200 bucks she'd get flamed hardcore for it, and the post would probably get deleted.

    I'm glad you brought this up. I just saw that post and was like "ummmm, why isn't she getting flamed?" It makes me want to go "like" the other people's pictures. Harumph.

    No, I get that it.  It makes sense.  But I what I don't get is someone else's actions bothering someone that strongly when they have no effect on that person.  I get thinking it's dishonest, or whatever, or saying you'd never do it because of how it would affect you/FI/whatever.  But saying "It really bothers me that you did that" when it has no effect on your life baffles me.

    [QUOTE]i was a bit disappointed that people admitted to hiding fb status updates of people with whom they disagree. i have a lot of good friends who are progressive liberals, but i wouldn't block their status updates just because I disagree with them on a few issues. that seems awfully intolerant.
    Posted by SarahSmile23[/QUOTE]

    I haven't hidden you. :)

    I know I said this, and now I'll back up why: the people I've hidden are people who word their opinions in ways that make me mad. I generally try not to expose myself to too much thinking that makes me mad, which is why I don't watch Fox News unless it's through the cozy filter of the Daily Show, and why I generally don't get into political discussions. If I choose to open a political thread here and get in a discussion about it, then that's my choice. But if I'm just reading my news feed to see who has a new puppy and who took a picture of their lasagna, I don't really want to be assaulted by something that upsets me, because then I might go off thinking about it and then I might not get work done. So if somebody makes a habit of posting distracting FB statuses, I hide them.

    I realize that I occasionally post things that have to do with my beliefs, but people are free to hide me if they choose. I think that hide button is an excellent thing.

    Ditto Sarah#

    Also, It bugs me that those people don't just think that, but tht they are giving misinformation to the rest of their FB friends. I have the urge to comment, which never turns into a short conversation. Too much stupid ignorant stuff, though, and I just defriend them, because I figure there is no reason for me to act like I even like them, or can respect them anymore. The only exception is my little sister, and that's because she listens when I ask her to think critically about something she has posted. ANd because I just can't defriend my little sister. I need to keep up with her and she never answers her phone.

    I do, however, block people who type in all txt speak. I don't have the time to try to decipher what they are saying, and I can't respect them anymore for posting like that. 

    ETA: DIsagreeing with me is not stupid and ignorant. Posting ignorant, inflammatory statements that have very little basis in fact just because someone else told them it was true is what I have issue with.

    I think I agreed with you Sarah in that thread and you couldn't have provided a better reason for why. But I also stated in that thread it's mostly those that play the stupid games. When the games are over, I'll bring you out of hiding, but until then you can be blocked from my view.

    I don't want to be visually assaulted by having to read some of the political rhetoric that spews from some people's mouths. I don't hide people just because they state something I don't agree with. It's about <em>how</em> they say it and how often it's repeated.

    I have only ever defriended one person from FB due to their political or religious based status update, and that's because he said that he thinks a great way to fix the problem of overcrowding in America's prisons is to start implementing manual abortions for black women with more than one child, like in China.  And he was being dead serious.
