> Students do not want to be exposed to opposed views Students do not want to be exposed to arrest and torture either. There's the problem with your analysis.

  Of course they do not want, so they do not want their views were exposed to everyone. Therefore they want an echo chamber for chosen ones. It is not a fault of Facebook, it is a direct consequence of authorian reign behaviour.

    But the way you phrased it, you make it sound as if it were the fault of the students, that this is simply a difference of opinion. It is not.

      I want to cry. I hoped that the way I phrased it would let me to stay away from this particular issues, not to fight over them and let me to speak about the opinions fighting in a whole. Though maybe humanity not that bad and hopeless, maybe it was my English is that bad and hopeless?

        It might well have just been your English. Communicating ideas in a second language can be very difficult! The way I see it, there is an asymmetry of power. Governments are able to harm individuals far more than individuals can harm governments. This needs to be taken into account when we talk about "freedom" online.

    Right. When we differ, there are many options besides deathmatch politics fueled by righteous indignation. Seek understanding of others. Be secure in that, and who you are. Celebrate differences and gain perspective. Amplify good, talk through and maybe past bad. I no longer judge much for past votes and difficult politics. I am most interested in votes and politics to come. A whole lot is possible. Getting along better is the root of the possible. We need more of the possible and line in the sand type conflict gets in the way.
