While I suppose statistics would show that the Internet is mostly liberal, I think the thing about the Internet is that if you're looking for right or left wing websites, there's tons of stuff out there. The seemingly innocent Family.org has everything from self-help to apple crisp, along with "How can I help a loved one who is gay? There is freedom from homosexuality through the transforming love of God."
As it has to do with fandom, that's all over the board as well. There are ads for RPGs that proclaim "no slash unless it makes sense." And so forth.
Personally, I wouldn't defriend someone if they said they were conservative. If they had posts regularly proclaiming gay marriage is wrong and we should continue to blast the unholy fuck out of Iraq, I might just because LJ is my escape (heavy emphasis there) and I really don't need to read that. I have a hard enough time refraining from debating people I care about in real life, such as my Pagan morris dancing friend who thinks Bush is the best thing since sliced bread.
