Sorry, but in my opinion, it's not the same.

What do people do on facebook? Post pictures of themselves, talk to their friends, play a few of those game apps. We're not talking indepth stuff here.

These people don't spend hours debating a niche subject like wrestling. Arguing over whether somebody deserves the label "awesome" at this point in time, or whether they buy someone as a heel.

I guess the issue is what makes them a nerd? Being "on the internet" doesn't make you a nerd IMO. It's the reason that you do it that makes you a "nerd". Socialising on facebook doesn't make you a nerd, debating endlessly over any particular subject does.
