TL;DR: for those hitting a paywall:
1) Go to https://www.facebook.com/ads/preferences https://www.facebook.com/ads/preferences
2) Open the Lifestyle and culture tab under the Interests section
3) Find the US Politics box and see what Facebook thinks you are in the parentheses
Edit: Apparently I am targeted for ads related to bubble wrap.
- raverbashing 10y agoAnd of course you'll only have the "US Politics" box if you are in the US (but I get "equivalent" results)
- Noseshine 10y agoI get nothing at all. Maybe that's because I have never clicked on or published anything related to politics, I only share "sciency" links (and none related to politics). I long ago decided that the best way to "lose friends and alienate people" [0] is to push political content to your network. [0] To those (few?) who don't know, that's a(n inverted) book reference.
- mrkgnao 10y agoNope. Indian, but get "US Politics (Liberal)".
- jahnu 10y agoIs there a way to get that info in the mobile app?

- arenaninja 10y agoThanks. This is awesome. About the only thing they have right about me is under Interests: 'Women'. Ethnic affinity is Asian, which is wrong. I don't have a US Politics box
- xenophonf 10y agoI really love the list of "advertisers whose ads you may see because you're on a contact list they uploaded to Facebook" that includes a bunch of people I don't know and with whom I have no affiliation.
- e40 10y agoIt got my political leaning correct, but under advertisers: fast-payday-loan. I find that curious.
- r-w 10y ago> Apparently I am targeted for ads related to bubble wrap. Isn’t everyone?
- JoeAltmaier 10y agoAnd I, "Derailment". Don't know where that came from, or even what it is.
