Not just that, but never before has there been this level of disinformation injected in to Western society, primarily by Russia & China. They’ve become master internet bullshitters, and we’re now on the brink of democracy failing because of how many people buy in to their complete nonsense. Now to me-- that’s an echo chamber.

While it's good to see someone else actually acknowledging this as being something that's actually happening, I wouldn't call that an echo chamber as so much as it's a propaganda agenda attack.

So much conflict online right now may not be truly between different members in the same society, but instead conflict that's whipped up by agitators from outside of the society.

We should all pay more attention to that meta, and act accordingly.
