what you're doing now is basically a variation on concern trolling. what you just said to me is something like
"I am CONCERNED that you are reacting emotionally due to your biases"
and then you go and cite some article about a psychological research effect to try and make your point, by quoting something from a fiction writer speaking about an entirely different scenario that seems to be at-best tangentially related (and that is a very generous interpretation) to this issue.
what is your actual point? I would suggest you check your own emotions and biases. maybe you are unduly supportive of FB even in situations where they ought to be scrutinized and deserve to be criticized.
edit: now that I've looked into it more, what is even IS the Gell-Man amnesia effect? I can't find any credible sources on this besides the essay Michael Crichton wrote, where he appears to have simply invented this for his own rhetorical purposes.
