"if you dislike politics, perhaps not follow a political scientist?"

I think about 60% of most people's home feed is boosts by other people. So they don't have to be following you to be exposed to you.

We did not build this house, nor have we lived in it for years. We are the immigrants, refugees actually. A culture was built here for purpose, for their needs. They like it.

As a practical matter, it's not going to change. It's a take-it-or-leave-it situation for each of us newcomers, it accomplishes nothing to beat the deceased equine, so just...decide...if it is for you.
