@arrrg and to vent for a second, you know the worst part to me, is that I come across an amazing number of people who actually support the echo chamber.
An amazing number of people flat out accept being surrounded by only bias confirming responses and they like it that way.
Well that's how people are.
@volkris Critical thinking requires giving a shit about something other than yourself and challenging your own per-conceived ideas. Most Americans care about nothing but themselves and bad ideas they were taught when they were 10.
@volkris I blame dumbassholery and legit brainwashing. Americans are conditioned at an early stage that Ds and Rs is all we need and all we can ever have, and even thinking differently than this will get you labelled as a "communist."
You're right though, the echo chamber is real, it keeps the masses in line after they leave the education system.
