When you say "Facebook", perhaps you don't control who accesses your 
Facebook page strictly enough, or perhaps you just stickybeak other 
people's pages. My "Facebook" is entirely family and very close friends 
and politics only comes in when somebody finds something particularly funny.

Facebook has its faults, but politics are put there not by FB but by 
people and if you invite people like that to your Facebook page, it 
really is your own fault.
