As a frequent user of Facebook, I want to be accountable for observing the following Eight Commandments:
1) Separate people from their positions, then address positions without attacking persons.
2) Avoid attaching labels to others they do not choose for themselves (leftist, fascist, socialist, racist, liberal, conservative, etc.).
3) Never engage in derogatory name calling (idiot, stupid, ignorant, crazy, hypocritical, etc.).
4) Affirm others' valid points.
5) Treat others with the same courtesy and respect you expect of them.
6) Never imply that people with whom you disagree are less intelligent or less worthy than yourself.
7) Avoid the use of generalities like, "always", "never", "forever", "all the time", etc.
8) Post only statements that can be verified by reliable, fact-checked sources.
