A small comfort as well. A lot better. These ``friends'' are not people who understand what we're talking about here. If you start explaining why they shouldn't put your picture there and so on, it will really be a lot of work. And you might end up losing these friends because, you know, people have little tolerance for politics. People wanna have fun. Eat, drink, play video games, watch TV, ... They get fed up with political stuff---it's hard to understand and it all seems to boil down to same thing over and over again. But, yeah, we're all probably better off away from these ``friends''. We just need to face our loneliness, which is healhty.
