      🧠: If you go protected you can manage your info env. Me: But won't that construct an echo chamber? 🧠: It doesn't have to if you're careful and deliberate.

      Oh no. I know you deal with it more but it's the second time this week that something of mine escaped the bounds of my closer circle of mutuals and it's just exhausting.

      What's wrong with creating an echo chamber? I get that some people think that in some vague abstract way it hurts the body politic, but that seems like weighing a real concrete harm to your sanity against a potential and frankly unproven harm to society.

      IMO: Very little. Your instinct is right. Echo chambers don't do the harm. If you stuck me in an echo chamber for a long that only talked about the flat earth, you wouldn't move me one bit.

      The bad effects only manifest when your chamber and mine are socially-partitioned and spend a pathology-inducing amount of time in adversarial inter-group contact. Absent that, mistakes tend to melt away because errors are expensive.

      A lot of people have lost the art of listening to adults they think are talking nonsense. Think about talking to a child. Sometimes they don't 100% make sense, but you listen patiently and try to relate, because the socialization is good for you and good for the child.

      Yes. And I really appreciate accounts that try to address ideas *and* people they don't agree with on this website (e.g. @RogueNotary), because I'm trying to figure out the best ways of doing so (on social mediums).

          Both the facts & logic crowd *and* academics tend to forget it's a mixture, not just about ideas.
