sbyteThis is just a FB rant. When you have to friend people that are not your friend...
So far, I've been careful to avoid people who use FB as a political platform or means to offend others. Unfortunately my brother-in-law now has an account and my sister wants me to friend him. He is neo-conservative and enjoys slamming and making fun of anyone who is not. Everyone is entitled to their beliefs, but not to shout it out there in a way designed to be hurtful to others. This is my brother-in-law's way though and he offends me a great deal.
Because this is a family thing, I will 'friend' him. However, I do not want to read the things he posts. I assume there is a way to block posts from FB friends and still remain 'friends.' I'll be spending a little time learning how that is done before sending him a friend request.
