There are plenty of "old", >50, people on Facebook. Sometimes they actually are the most vocal in the comments section of the newspapers, especially when it comes to topics such as the EU and immigration. I do believe that the article is correct in that social media is creating self-reinforcing subsocieties with little to no exchanges between different opinions. There are plenty of people in Germany getting all their information from hate websites like epochtimes, compact and kopp via their Facebook feeds. Disagreeing or critical comments are deleted from the comments section, creating the impression that one's own opinion is supported by the majority. You can't believe how many racists believe that their opinion is shared by the silent majority, a believe supported by the support their views experience in the social media echo chamber.
