Forgive the title, not sure if this is the correct term or not for this.


I've been noticing a trend on my Facebook of people saying something along the lines of "if you are voting for _______ just go ahead and unfriend me we have nothing in common"


so the question is are you one of these people that does this?


I am pretty neutral politically since Rand Paul dropped out.  I don't want socialism, I don't want Hillary, I don't want Trump I don't want a bunch of promises that never get passed in congress.


The problem I have with this trend is that instead of making a debate or having opposing sides meet in the middle like how politics is supposed to work instead you have people only surrounding themselves with other like minded people, which in my opinion is an unintellectual way to go about things.  


Is this a trickle down effect to how congress has been acting?  Are people in general really this petty?


Or is having social media so easily accessible the problem in this situation?
