Hmmm.... I think that a lot of these "people jumped on me on social media!" anecdotes aren't because people said they preferred Spartacus over Game of Thrones (Spartacus is way way better btw), but because they got involved in one of those debates that is tantamount to a fight.
Like abortion, or wealth inequality, or police brutality, or gay rights, or race and IQ.

If you try to have a reasonable discussion with someone about certain topics, the whole thing goes nuclear. It takes a lot of work from two people with wildly opposing views for that not to happen.
