(42,862 posts)I've done the same thing (not for political reasons, but for repetitive ads of things I have zero interest in).
My experience is nothing at all like the ones I "hear about" on DU... complaining of NONSTOP and AGGRESSIVE ads for RW sites.
I truly have a difficult time at taking all these claims at face value. It always sounds like an exaggerated repetition of the "I know someone who told me their hairdresser's daughter's mother-in-law said".
I just choose my FB friends wisely. And for the occasional odd FB relative that I've "friended" as a courtesy only... I just hide them and "unfollow" them and "see less" of them. Eventually I forget they're even there. They don't interact with me, and I don't interact with them and I don't see the crap they post in their own curated reality.
