I think we agree/are saying the same thing? I'm saying that talking in absolutes about echo chambers being bad is reductive. To me, the important distinction between an actual echo chamber and being a normal person with beliefs and opinions, is the ability to recognize that sometimes others have different beliefs/opinions and that those may be equally valid. Like I said I'm anti nazi, but also that normal people (which I'm sometimes classified as) are able to accept some differences. So I'm not ok with nazis, but I think it's ok to fast for lent if you want even if I don't. So, we're both saying context is important?
