    If your opinions or ideas are liked by the majority of people. It doesn’t mean you’re in an echo chamber, it means you have shitty ideals and opinions. Want that to change? Then change your fucking mind and open yourself to new perspectives. Otherwise, go to Truth or X where mentally ill people and bots can agree with your garbage takes.

      Considering I have them tagged as a musk apologist already, clearly theyre either an asshole or a troll. I give people a chance by tagging them first and blocking if I see them again stirring shit

        You people always think of everything so black and white all the goddamn time. There are gradients to it. Most people are somewhere in the grey.

        The fucking irony in you saying this.

        -Cries about echo chamber. -Gets schooled. -“STop seEinG thiNgS bLAck and WhiTe” while simultaneously seeing this black and white.

        Fuck outta here bro.

    @Majorllama@lemmy.world

    You seriously need to relax and chill, you are being way too serious, argumentative and damn near spouting serious conservative takes.

    This comm is meant for jokes and humor, MAYBE some light debate I can let slide if it doesn’t get too argumentative, but you seriously drag down nearly every thread you show up on.

    And I’m not even speaking about threads just in this comm either, maybe you should do some self reflection on why you’re constantly being downvoted.

    This is your last warning, chill out and/or block the comm on your own, or I’ll do it for you.

    I’m glad you’re on here doing something else, like taking big Ls down in the comments.

        Bro people have been following me around and down voting everything

        You sure? Because your entire comment history is about going against the grain and endlessly complaining about “you people”. Tbh, you don’t sound exactly friendly.

        You really think I give a shit about “taking Ls?”

        Clearly not with the endless quarreling lol Could it be a personality disorder? Not being mean, it’s a genuine question, having been diagnosed myself and having had worked through things

        Doesn’t change how bad of an echo chamber this website is

        The absence of a large conservative user base does not necessarily make it an echo chamber. If anything, the conservatives around here act just like you picking fights with everyone, but also post tons of misinformation in typical conservative fashion. Literally the only ones. You’re essentially asking us diners why they’re such cucks for not taking a plop of shit to our dinner plate and blaming us for poor diets. Like, c’mon, dude. Do you understand what you’re asking for? How can you be so apologetic to venomous conservative antics?

        And before you accuse me of being another monkey in a chamber, consider that I spent 15+ years arguing with dissenting, hard-headed voices online in all types of diverse forums, including conservative and conspiracy groups. And after all that, I’m done with that mind-numbing shit having to explain basic aspects of life to people who flunked out of school. If Lemmy is an occasional echo chamber but at least rubs their braincells together and still believes in integrity, then so be it. I’m happy I don’t need to interact with stupid often. Lemmy is sophisticated and self-aware enough of its own perils for the simple fact that it’s largely educated. You’re not the first to notice or raise your points, nor will you be the last. But at least walk two moons in our shoes before you descend with derision and judgement as to why we’re here in the first place. We’ve been there, we’ve done it, and nothing good came out of it. Stop pretending you know the answers to problems we don’t have.

    An echo chamber is an echo chamber no matter what color paint you put on the walls.

    Echo chambers have varying degrees of harm. They are merely a group of like-minded individuals. This says little of the objective truth of their ideas.

      Yeah I don’t care what specific degree of echo chamber it is. I think all echo chambers are inherently bad for those inside at all times.

        So you’re some sort of voyeur who likes to watch these kind of people so you can pretend to be superior?

        Weird hobby, but I won’t yuck your yum. Carry on.
