The centralisation of debate onto organs like Facebook could limit the exposure some people get to other sources of information and leave dogmatically held fallacies (some worse than Lucas having an original vision which the SE of the hour represents) unchecked.

 

That's the saddest part of the entire franchise to me - the ever changing original vision and some people's inability to see that there is no such thing.  Nor was there ever such a thing, beyond the 1977 theatrical release.

My hope is that as Star Wars fandom moves more into the Facebook world, the truth will be discovered.  I think making reality more accessible will ultimately help people see the light.  Taking the cliques and moderated discussions out of their self-controlled worlds will expose them to the scrutiny they deserve.
