I think the question was rather what people are tweeting about free agency that makes someone following them want to "cull" them. Also, I know the comment specified "in a hockey context," but... talking about being being repellent about a fascist would-be dictator who would deprive millions of people of human rights and comparing that to liking/hating the Pens... :/

Whoops. I guess I wasn't clear enough. All I meant in comparing those 3 events was that large scale events (the conventions, free agency, the cup final) are all things that captured the attention of my TL as a whole. And that mostly single topic of discussion provided the opportunity to easily pick out and unfollow those who have opinions that didn't square with mine.

Eh, I just think having differing opinions about hockey teams is fundamentally not the same as having differing opinions about fascist dictators and human rights. Like, being a fan of a team, even being an obnoxious fan, is not a moral thing. Idk I'm sensitive about people trying to interpret what teams/players you root for as a reflection of how good of a person you are, and even though that wasn't your intent it sounds like, the change to your comment from the one you replied to was kinda jarring. I can see people making shitty comments about the P.K. Subban trade and race, for example, as relevant to that convo, if that's what you were referring to by "free agency." But I think the confusion was that it was hard to imagine how people's opinions about free agency or the cup final could be the same kind of bad as supporting Trump.

Agreed. Comparing disliking a hockey team to disliking Trump is a pretty gross comparison.
