In case you aren’t aware of what a Facebook War is I’ll explain it to you…even though it’s about as self explanatory as plastic forks. Anyways, a Facebook War is when someone posts something as their status and then proceeds to engage in a heated debate about the opinions of their friends. What’s that you say?
Social media is made to be a platform to voice opinions and discuss topics in an open forum. Come on people we all know social media’s sole purpose on the planet is to make the rest of the world jealous of how cute your dog is, the great food you’re eating and how well you can take a selfie. Go to LinkedIn if you want to be around people who want to discuss politics and worldly events and leave Facebook for us reality TV watching, gossip magazine reading, ex-lover stalking people. You see it all the time, people who you didn’t even know where still alive all of a sudden are staging a full frontal verbal assault and you know the worst part? Half the time it’s only between ONLY two people. Why must my news feed become a casualty of your war? This is why there’s Facebook messenger.Also if you feel you just must use Facebook as a debate forum or you’re going to spontaneously combust please don’t ever use the line “Be mature and discuss this like an adult.” I mean, you’re cyber-bullying each other on Facebook…am I the only one who sees the irony in that?
