very conservative...
Never would have figured that. I am far more a conservative libertarian. Well, until the libertarians nominated their douchebag president/VP for this time around.

Not surprised, very conservative.

Yep they track everything, your mouse movements, how long you hover over an item, EVERYTHING.

And if you use the Facebook quick login to access other websites, they know everything you do there, as well.

I ALWAYS create a separate profile on every website.

Do they watch it bounce back and forth when I am fapping looking at the 'Busty Asian Beauties' website?

It doesn't.

I rarely ever get on there but am active duty military and posting political bullshit is severely frowned upon by the CO. They actually have public affairs officer that looks for that stuff, crazy.

Doesn't matter, hey can link it all together based on the huge number of cookies you are carrying around.

There is a reason Zuckerman lives behind walls.

again, by their definition, Mitt Romney is a wild wide eyed tinfoil birther conservative spouting conspiracies

It was Conservative. I made some adjustments, let's see if I can game the system a bit.

Very Conservative - I have enough of a libertarian streak that I don't really belong in that group. Just shows you Facebook's bias.

Yes, Facebook thinks it knows how liberal or conservative you are. Did you know you can see that info for yourself? Tell us how you did!

Go to facebook.com/ads/preferences on your browser. (You may have to log in to Facebook first.) That will bring you to a page featuring your ad preferences. Under the “Interests” header, click the “Lifestyle and Culture” tab. Then look for a box titled “US Politics.” In parentheses, it will describe how Facebook has categorized you, such as liberal, moderate or conservative. (If the “US Politics” box does not show up, click the “See more” button under the grid of boxes.)

Some of that is gold.

In politics, it says I am "Conservative". I suppose generally speaking I would be categorized as Conservative, although I identify as more "libertarian".

But under Hobbies and Activities, it lists an interest as "Cement". Yep, Cement. WTF?
