You're in an echo chamber if you curate your home feed to only show one opinion and then never change it; it doesn't matter what the opinion is
How?
This is where you implied it was an attack. By saying that I was drawing an image of people when literally all I did was an explain what an echo chamber was. I never passed judgement on you, or said anything about the diversity of opinions I partake in. You decided all by yourself to be upset about a simple explanation of what an echo chamber was. If you're not in one, don't worry about it lol
I think you might be protecting your peace a lil too close to the sun
Wow, dude. Get back to your echo chamber. You're brittle and shrill outside of it.
How did you take this as an attack? An echo chamber is the exaggerated idea of hearing only a single opinion, as curated to your own beliefs. It doesn't matter what the belief is.
Obviously no one is 100% in an echo chamber, but it's also obvious that everyone is guilty of confirmation bias; and tend to prefer seeing their own opinions online. I never said anything about my own feed or accused you of being in an echo chamber. I just explained what one was because you implied that it's impossible to be in a liberal echo chamber
Steve are you alright? You're so defensive against someone who's just explaining a concept you literally asked about
