Your friend sounds like an snobbish ass. Just because something is offline doesn't mean it's not mediocre. There are many, many valid criticisms of social media. But when your friend mentions something they enjoy you don't seem very nice when you tell them that what they enjoy sucks. Don't yuck someone else's yum.
We’re friends, though. We’re honest with each other. I want to know his perspective even when we diverge.
So if I love pizza and he hates it, I don’t want my friend to tell me with a coat-hanger smile that he likes pizza too. I want to know how much he hates it with all the adjectives he can muster.
I don't think that was at all the point the friend was making
This kind of inability to accept others’ point of view is why I don’t connect with people much anymore.
When I was younger I had lots of friends who had differing opinions and we had the openness to say “that’s fucking stupid” with each other, explain why and still remain friends.
These days you can slip up just once with a minor non-conforming opinion and people suddenly become unhinged. And I simply can’t take only talking about surface level topics to avoid conflict anymore.
