On the other hand I was unfriended myself on one occasion, when I challenged one attack picture as being an out-and-out lie. When I proved it. I got dumped. C'est la vie.

Steve, Exactly. The political meme, fake news and general nonsense took the enjoyment of FB(of what little it has) right out of it.
I have not been unfriend yet for any discussion. I may have been unfollowed. We are not notified if a friend unfollows so we never know when it happens. I have unfollowed enough that all I read is my wifes recipes, daughters postings and my own stuff.
