You are right.  They are cyber "friends", not to be confused with people who are really friends. I am friends with some of them too, on FB, but they know me and so even when we disagree, they don't get huffy.  A lot of my FB "friends" are people that were on another cat forum, but have migrated off. They are not people I will ever actually meet and some of them I have known (in a cyber way) for years. I would say 98% of them are for Hillary (don't know if cat ownership and Democratic leanings are a "thing").   I find it so interesting that if I post something pro Trump, they are all over me; and if they post something about Hilary, and I even barely suggest something counter, they get angry and upset. 

It's not actually like their vote or my vote will be the deciding vote, but people really get viscious. 

People are actually funny - if I post something pro University of Alabama, the Auburnites go crazy.  But the truth is, I'm just as happy to see Auburn win as University of Alabama and when they play each other, I'm just happy if they have a good game.  I didn't go to either school, and at the end of the day, it is still just a football game.  I felt as bad about what idiots have done to the trees at Toomers corner as any Auburnite - one because it is a tree, and secondly, I think it is nice when schools have traditions, even if they are not my tradition.
