      Surprisingly, simply saying “EcHo ChAmBeR!!1!” without counter arguments has not fixed the problem.

      I’m as shocked as you are.

        Surprisingly, making it worse does even less good than pointing the causes out

        I’m indeed shocked you tried so badly to make a “gotcha” towards obvious statements

      there’s no agreed definition of echo chamber though.

      It is an echo chamber to say “murder is bad” “CSAM is bad” “rape is bad” - as 99.99% of people, when pushed, will agree those things are bad, echoing each other verbatim.
