Pew Research says liberals more likely to unfriend over political differences? True or False? - Xtra - 04-29-2013 02:47 AM
Its a conservative paper "The Daily Caller," but they put the article on yahoo news, and its not a right-leaning organization. I questioned the validity of the source I used last night so I deleted it.
You think this is bogus or true?

In my experience liberals don't really care as much about politics as they do other things, and aren't as convicted of their views as conservatives.

I've already lost a "friend" both through Facebook and in real life because I made fun of Mitt Romney, so I don't know if I'd say one's more likely to unfriend than the other.

I would question what research methods they used as well as how they came about their sample group, just like I do with the liberals' stats.
I can make up stats just like any elitist research group. Watch this:
Studies show that 87% of Americans know that 95% of statistics are made up.

"In all, 28% of liberals have blocked, unfriended, or hidden someone on SNS [social networking sites] because of one of these reasons, compared with 16% of conservatives and 14% of moderates.†So, if you don't want to be seen as a liar you would say "28% of people considering themselves to be liberal have blocked people as opposed to 30% of other people".

very true. Liberals act like children and are easily butt hurt.

LOL So liberals are now more intolerant of the opinions of others. My what a surprise. Some of the typical postings of progressive liberals are:
I hate Republicans
Republicans are all stupid teabaggers
Republican Party should be outlawed
Republicans should all be deported
Republicans should be arrested.
About the dumbest item I have seen from a progressive though is
"IF YOU DON'T AGREE WITH ME, IT MEANS THAT YOU ARE STUPID"
