Facebook is really not built to facilitate intelligent conversation, is it?

[randomness]

There's a conversation going on in a Facebook group I'm in that may someday become my personal Exhibit A for why Facebook is a terrible place to have any kind of substantive, meaningful conversation.

I'm not linking to it now because I don't need an Exhibit A at the moment. Moreover, pointing large numbers of people at the conversation who have no connection to the group will probably not be helpful.

Certainly I've heard nothing to suggest that Facebook is trying to be a useful platform for quality conversations. Mostly it seems to be to support ADD socializing of high-school students.
