Is it even possible to have an intelligent debate on Facebook? I've not seen one yet.......Depends on what's being debated!! And who koins the debate. Easy to back out with grace, well at least for Arena veterans
I never do politics on FB and hide posts from those who do. I go to the Arena on this forum and other blogs for politics. This is just my preference. I find it amusing that people on this forum say they will never use social media. But this forum IS a form social media and sorry but you're reading this you're are already using social media. I use this forum mostly for motorcycle topics and use FB mostly for grand children topics. The only real difference is the size and scope possible on FB and you can choose the scope you want to use on FB.
About the only time and place I'll ever do politics is face to face and even then it's a rare occurance.... During the winter when we are doing repair work on our Tug & Barge I've been known to shut down these conversations when they break out in the galley as it is disruptive to getting our work done... Yes I've even told my Bosses to shut down their pie holes when they are on my boat!
