That's an interesting point of view, and a paranoid person would question the true motives of such a person in that org: were they in for the collective ? For personal gains ? Working as an agent for a third-party ?
> I asked, "Why are we on Facebook? These guys are completely against us!" and everyone looked patronizingly at the old guy and said, "We need to get our message across in every platform!"
This is actually a point I totally agree with: you have to talk to people where they are, especially when they don't already agree with you. But in my opinion it sends a wrong image and such orgs should use Libre Software and decentralized networks first, and only on top of that use FB/Twitter as a copy-paste of the main platforms.
There's a very important step to do that is to categorize who your target is. Basically it's a bunch of concentric rings: those who agree with you, then those who are questioning and need a bit of information, then those who aren't thinking about the subject yet... you have to convince those around you, who will convince those around them, and on and on. In that vein, sticking to decentralized platforms first and gradually growing makes a lot of sense
