"Although I try to keep my feed diverse"
Why support someone else's "grassroots" advertising model?
On the other hand, I have some FB friends who at least appear rational and interesting as long as you don't see any post containing Obama, Marxist, Kenyan, Job Creator, and a couple other key phrases. Keyword blocking would be an interesting feature to add to the "I don't want to see this" menu that is already present in FB. Add an option "contains keywords" and then select predetermined keywords.
One interesting side effect is likely to be an explosion of vocabulary. Once I block the obvious keyphrases above, I'll just have a newsfeed spammed with 'bama, Stalinist, African, and anticapitalist. I'm not sure that would be an improvement. Or it'll look like modern spam with weirdly spelled words.
