You are not alone in this at all :-). I think this rollercoaster of social media discourse is simply the outcome of targeting engagement as a metric of success. You're not gonna get much engagement by encouraging reflection and dialog, which will quickly sink your stuff at the bottom of everyone's timelines and poof! goes the traffic.
