Also having your own words twisted and used as an argument just to prove a point, valid or not, is just wrong.

I got off of Facebook for this very reason when Obama got elected for the first time.  I went there originally to catch up with friends.  That is not even close what it turned into.

Truth. I wanted nothing to do with it but signed up when my class reunion was coming up. I thought it would be a good way to catch up with folks beforehand, which I did, and it was pretty neat. I never made it to my reunion and I should've cancelled FB and got on with my life but then I was able to see long distance family and friends and chat with them and see photos and decided to stay on. Fast forward a decade and I'd had enough.
