Our Friday blogger “complains” – perhaps mentors – that I use social media not enough. He often cajoles me to post – comment – more, especially on things that matter.  My wife sometimes counters I post too often.  On Facebook some friends (small f intended) may share divergent opinions.   Where facts support another view, I feel compelled to emphasize accuracy (In my practice what we often call "pushback" almost remains a requirement.).

Recently, some friends with whom I share an enjoyment of the music of a particular recording artist agreed we’d focus on that in our social media interactions.

I certainly support discourse and exchange of views but perhaps the forums where we exchange certain commentary require some reconsideration.

It remains a concern when evidence exists of manipulation on some of those media.

Thoughts?
