[QUOTE="Techster, post: 693449, member: 360"] [URL]http://theconversation.com/the-problem-of-living-inside-echo-chambers-110486[/URL] Visit each thread in here that remotely has to do with politics (and some that don't). It's the same pattern: The same handful of posters going around in a circle jerk. Someone new comes in to add a new POV, and the same horde descends. Liberals!!! Socialists!!! It's actually pretty humorous how it's all like clockwork. Literally, go into any of the political threads in the Lounge and it's the same thing over and over. Anyhow, that article pretty much summarizes what's going on in the Lounge...and in social media these days. I personally love hearing different POVs because you want to see something from a different perspective. Not everyone views the world the same...and maybe that's the problem. Some people are comfortable in their corner, and that's fine. IMO, it's pretty lonely living like that. [/QUOTE]
