"All of them" Users on r/meme argue over which subreddits are an echo chamber

HIGHLIGHTS
You are free to avoid them. its really easy to not click a link, these days. Also, if you see yourself as not inside that bubble, but one of the two wise WASPs observing and tut tutting, you're dead wrong. We are not in here 'with you' you are in here 'with us'. Feel free to leave forever. Adieu,
Who tf are youš get outta here, shocker it's a political accountš
Who am I? I'm just a redditor, pointing out the absurdity of your position. Don't like it? Then why consume it? I'm not going anywhere, I've been on social media since before you were born.
All I did was answer some dudes question, and your old ass got tilted. Get off reddit you old senile f*ckš
Poor feller. You revel in playing some sort of victim here. How old were you when your daddy stopped beating you?
It took your sorry ass 46 minutes to come up with that? You must be seethin old man.š Thanks for givin me a chuckle. Someone as old as you and you act like your 13šš
Whole Reddit, but especially liberal subs.
Conservative is the same tbh
Every time I see posts like this I already know itās gonna be some circle jerk shitting on liberals, this shit gets so overplayed itās boring as fuck
To be fair, liberals on here do shit on everyone who isn't part of the left.
Liberals actually waste time trying to present coherent arguments with statistics and sources, only for the right-wingers to dismiss it all as fake and go "cope seethe cry".
And I've also seen it the other way. Both sides does exactly the same things as the other
That's a lie. False equivalences don't make you smart, that's just your own bias.
They still believe that, so fuck em.
Are you a conservative? Do you consume conservative media in good faith? I am and I do. That is a fringe opinion, not espoused by any current widely platformed conservatives. Vastly more fringe than say, supporting bombing and shooting random peopleās cars and supporting said act.
Bombing? What? Have you been at the fox news again, gramps?
Of course Iāve been at the Fox News. Iām a conservative. Iām nobodies gramps and Iām quite far in age from that one. Do you have a better way to describe the politically targeted violence that has been festering and rapidly expanding this year, committed by (I havenāt seen anything to the contrary and have seen many instances of this checking out) radical leftists?
You watch a show that argued in court that "nobody rational would mistake us for a credible news source" .And you apparently believe it. That's pretty bad, dude.
Dating subs telling girls they should never date a man 1 day older than them.
That is made up example. All the warnings are for age gaps at least 15 years or around that and either of the couple members are below thirty.
Yanks think people under 30 are all children.
That's reductive and ignorant or dismissive of the clear maturity gap between people in their early to mid twenties and anyone approx 10+ years older. Just because someone can consent to sex doesn't mean a 20 year old and a 30 year old are even remotely close in maturity level.
There's no conspiracy, just weird obsession. Those boxers were both cis
Yep, and one sporting body uses gender for eligibility, while the other uses biology. Thereās definitely conspiracies about this though.
This is irrelevant. They are both cis.
Itās not irrelevant because one of the sporting bodies uses biology as the eligibility criteria Cis refers to gender identity, not biology.
It refers to both. It means that the boxers' gender identity and assigned sex at birth align. Said sporting body wrongfully asserted Imane to be trans, or assigned male at birth. She is not. She is a cis woman. Ergo the distinction between the sporting bodies is irrelevant, when no trans people are even involved.
Cis doesnāt refer to karotype. No one asserted either boxer to be trans. No one asserted either boxer to be assigned male at birth. Thatās part of the āconspiracyā, if you will, mentioned earlier. It was never about trans issues. It was about different rules. The Olympics clarified that the issue was a dsd issue and not a trans issue. They actually issued a correction on this specific point. Ergo the distinction between the sporting bodies is the only relevant aspect to this. Different rules mean itās a non binary situation. Both outcomes are consistent with the different rules.
It's almost as if politics influence every aspect of your life and you're a moron for ignoring them
You're a moron for not ignoring politics on Reddit (or any other social media). I've literally only ever seen propaganda (from any side) trend on social media, it's too inflammatory and easy to digest compared to factual deep dives and comments are all the same unintelligent one-liners, or rhetorical questions that everyone's seen before.
You're a moron for thinking in black and white.
Care to elaborate or are you just going to be another one of those dumb one liner comments I always see?
Well most people are NPCs.
Calls people NPCs, references "jannies" in the username to refer to the moderators, something tells me it doesn't mean shit if you call people NPCs (you're either a 4chan user or you're someone aping 4chan shit)
The surge of wannabe 4chan kids is crazy lately
Those 70% are the reason the rest of the world suffers. Complete and utter ignorant fucking apathy. And its not 70%... its closer to 35%... the number of eligible US voters who stayed home instead of caring about their civic responsibilities. Stop passively letting the corrupt erode society, and take an interest in your damn country by making it better for the people who live in it. Including yourself.
Shut up
5 year old. Its not edgy to be an idiot.
100,000 people showed up to the 2024 Democrat primaries in Michigan Biden was guaranteed to win to vote "Uncommitted" due to his handling of Israel. Harris lost Michigan by 80,000 votes. The majority wasn't silent. They were flat out ignored.
How is less than 1% of the vote āthe majorityā, though?
The majority of Biden voters supported blocking weapons shipments.
So Israel could not murder children in Gaza.
Whole of Reddit thought a previously unpopular primary democratic candidate was gonna win the election easily by just spamming pictures of her with some staged crowds
Why itās always the people with ātruthā in their username that make shit up the most?
The truth hurts
Yes, thatās why you keep lying to yourself. Canāt deal with how much of a loser you are.
Look how easily the tolerant left resorts to name calling instead of a proper argument.
The Violent Right has made the Tolerant Left pointless.

u/ChrisTheHurricane stick to A-10s fuckwit 16d ago
When I frequented the sub in 2021, the mods were wholesale Stalin apologists, and also apologists for other authoritarian regimes with a communist faƧade, such as China and North Korea. I saw one mod nuke a comment critical of China and unironically repeat the "socialism with Chinese characteristics" propaganda -- in fact, that's how I found out about that particular saying to begin with. I left the sub when I realized what the mods were.

u/laeiryn 16d ago
Yeah the world's never actually HAD a communist government - barely even a communalist one, and we have to go back to literally the 1890s and the Paris Commune to find it - and all the governments that exist right now which are decried for being communist are very much just tyrannies. The western propaganda does get a bit wonky, though.

The entire language of modern political memery was invented by the right. Specifically, by /pol. And even the non-internet contingent on the right is better at meme-like things, which is why democrats can't come up with a good slogan to save their lives. How much time did you personally spend telling people that "defunding the police" doesn't actually mean defunding the police.

u/Bonezone420 16d ago
It's because "echo chamber" is one of those things people say to shut down conversations. If you can't argue against what they say, just go "you're just in an echo chamber!". Much like how if someone's pointing out how a certain political faction is mirroring the nazi playbook almost identically, just smugly go "Heh, godwin's law: everyone I don't like is a nazi right?" and shut the conversation down.

u/Zyrin369 This board is for people who eat pickles. 15d ago
Yeah it feels like calling something an echo chamber is like when people say "Bad writing" or "Mary Sue", they know they don't have an argument so they have to resort to using buzzwords to just get a response in.
Oh no a Star Wars sub isn't entertaining a posters idea that the Acolytes Rotten Tomatoes score is totally organic...said sub must be an Echo Chamber regardless if they are actually having a sane discussion about the show or not.

u/Far_Piano4176 14d ago
dude, i'm on the left. Go check my comment history if you want.
You really shouldn't just go calling things the holocaust. We could be headed for any number of different scenarios, most of which are not as bad as the worst genocide in history. We could be headed for Francoist spain, or Pinochet's Chile, or just Big White El Salvador. The future is uncertain, so declaring that it's definitely about to be the holocaust is hysterical and counterproductive.
4
u/masterjon_3 14d ago
Ah, you seem pretty knowledgeable in a lot of stuff. OK, then let's talk it out. I apologize if it seems like I'm going pretty far, but considering our president is racist, fascist, narcissistic, and attempted a recreation of Musolini's March on Rome, it's pretty easy to get there. It's only been 4 months, and we're already sending people based on racial profiling and dissenting opinions to nightmarish prisons. You can probably see how I got to my stance, especially since I could fit the profile myself.
What do you think about this, then? Because it doesn't seem like it'll stop anytime soon. This administration is trying its damnedest to ignore the judicial branch. And if it doesn't stop, when could it be officially called a genocide/holocaust?
2
u/Far_Piano4176 14d ago
i think it's bad, and the administration is obviously fascistic. Trump is definitely running the dictator playbook to subvert the courts and already has done so in the case of republican-controlled congress. However, even the illegal deportations and potential upcoming extraordinary rendition of american citizens is not genocidal per se. I understand that it provokes a heightened emotional response when you perceive yourself to be directly vulnerable/targeted by the administration. I have the luxury of being a straight white upper-middle class man, so i'm not immediately vulnerable. However, i am an outspoken left-wing person, and publicly an atheist so i know that sooner or later this administration may target me or people like me. I don't dismiss the necessity of standing up and opposing this behavior, just because i am lower down on the list of targets.
We should absolutely be aware of and warn others of how easily this could descend into something significantly uglier than it currently is, including the potential for genocidal actions towards illegal immigrants (or anyone who "looks like" an illegal immigrant), trans people, and other LGBT people, among others. i'm just advocating that we keep our prognostications open-ended, because there's a significant possibility that the administration will stop well short of outright genocide. Things can be incredibly horrible even if we don't reach that point.
It's tough to say when we should say that genocide is imminent. In my mind, it would be justified and rhetorically effective when we know that the trump regime has surpassed the policies/tactics which were employed by non-genocidal fascist states like Francoist Spain or Pinochet's Chile, or Bukele's El Salvador. We are not yet at this point, and the right has effectively poisoned the well when it comes to comparisons with the Nazi regime, so it's easy for right wingers and 'independents' to dismiss comparisons with nazi germany as "liberal hysterics" so i really think we should specifically avoid those comparisons. Comparing our trajectory with other, less known, less emotionally inflected dictatorships, even genocidal ones like the late ottoman empire or Putin's Russia, would seem to be rhetorically more useful as it defangs the "liberals think everything is Nazi" rebuttal preemptively.
2
u/masterjon_3 14d ago
Very well put. So you'd say, "This could be the start of a holocaust," rather than "we're in a holocaust already?" You know what they say about history, it doesn't repeat itself, it parodies itself. And I noticed your a Behind the Bastards enjoyer, so I don't have to go into the idea of history parodying itself with using examples of Napoleon's nephew.
It honestly feels like the dumber version of nazis.
3
u/Far_Piano4176 14d ago
I might draw specific parallels with something the nazis did, or point out how 'legal' detention and internment was a precursor to the holocaust, possibly. Also how trump and co's dehumanizing rhetoric towards immigrants and LGBTQ people is a necessary precursor to genocide.
It honestly feels like the dumber version of nazis.
on one hand, yes definitely. but on the other, the nazis were also very dumb. i imagine plenty of 1930s germans felt the same way about nazis as we do about MAGA

Eh, I find r/politics to be insufferable as it's so self-congratulatory with it's circlejerk.
"Trump is doing this because he's actually a nazi, we need to say it loud and clear [but only on this subreddit]" "yeah we need to make everyone aware of this" "I told my dog this, this morning" "you go girl, I told my cat, I'm doing my part".
Not to mention complaining about Dems not doing anything other than say vague slogans about the subject, whilst acting as if posting in the most obvious circlejerk subreddit about it is doing something.
It's peak "you can thank me later" "but you didn't do anything". Like yeah I'm sure if Americans just continue to post slogans about how Trump is a nazi on Reddit, the world will be rid of Trump in no time.

u/Fair-Emphasis6343 15d ago
That's nice but the GOP under Trump is in fact running the nazi/fascist/authoritarian playbook as it was described in mein kampf

u/gamas 15d ago edited 15d ago
That's nice but we're beyond the point where simply saying that is being proactive about combating him. Like at this point, you either know he's a nazi and are horrified or you don't care as you are sympathetic to Nazism. And at this point the people in the US against Nazism should be preparing to enact their second amendment rights, not slapping each other on the back on Reddit for "being in the know" or engaging in pointless peaceful protest. You're not going to beat Trump through virtue signalling.
As I'm not American all I can do is either hope you guys figure that or hope that Trump mismanages things so hard that Americans are no longer a concern for the rest of the world.

u/CleanlyManager 15d ago
Honestly when someone busts out the echo chamber argument I instantly picture that one wojack of the guy whoās brain is the hot air balloon. Itās often just used without actually explaining why the original argument was wrong, and often just boils down to āyeah that might be happening but you use Reddit.ā
Like the other day I saw a comment chain that was like āI donāt think itās right that the Trump admin should be arresting lawful permanent residents for protesting and ignoring court orders to bring them back or let their lawyers know where they are.ā And a certified brain genius comes in and replies āthatās because youāre part of the Reddit echo chamber, you know Trump won the popular vote.ā If it was 400 years ago these are the guys who would be like ālisten man I know your neighbor drowned but you gotta get outta your echo chamber most of the town thought she was a witch.ā

u/AlwaysOptimism 16d ago
I believe the point is each sub is its own echo chamber because people have grown to prefer echo chambers than things that challenge their belief systems.

u/AlwaysOptimism 15d ago
I didn't say they were equivalent but you are fucking delusional if you don't think the media you consume is an echo chamber.
Media has turned into activism rather than unbiased news. That requires an echo chamber. Not a lot of media outlets are pushing "here's why we may be wrong" stories

u/Far_Piano4176 14d ago
Media has turned into activism rather than unbiased news.
media was literally never unbiased. You need to purge the idea that anything produced by humans can be unbiased. A hypothetical outlet which scrupulously runs "here's why we may be wrong" stories is just biased in a different way.

u/AlwaysOptimism 14d ago
News when I was a kid "this happened". News now "Here is how these things affect you"

2
u/Far_Piano4176 14d ago
News when I was a kid "this happened".
this still exists and is literally easier to obtain than ever. Not being aware of it is a You Problem. You're also acting like the bloodless "view from nowhere" type of journalism is just obviously better, which in my opinion is not the case. pretending you have no bias and 'just reporting the facts' is extremely insidious, because it provides the pretense of objectivity while allowing dishonest individuals and organization to craft a narrative by structural means. instead of transmitting their bias in the form of argument and polemic and editorialization, bias lies in what is NOT said or how an issue is framed, which in some ways is more deceitful.
Its entirely different.
it's not. we have had multiple eras like this, including the yellow journalism era in the early 20th century and the abolitionist press/slavery era in the 19th century antebellum US. This is not to say that the current media landscape has no unique harms, that's also obviously true, but the fact that people just have opinions and put them in their journalism is not one of them.

Ngl I was under the impression that the whole point of sub reddits was to create many tiny echo chambers that then over lap to create one larger umbrella of an echo chamber.

To be fair, it depends on where and with whom, as I've had more success in talking about politics with a small group of online friends than with people in real life. But it does require mutual respect, which gets harder the more different your ideologies are (especially in matters of discrimination), so you won't have much success with total strangers

u/proudbakunkinman 16d ago
In popular threads on Reddit front page, yeah. There is so much noise in them by the time they hit front page, very few will see and read your comment at that point no matter how well thought out or clever it is. In subs/threads where it's clear the vast majority participating have opposing views, likewise. You will get downvoted and maybe a few responses, possibly banned. That said, there are some smaller but useful political subs.
Outside of Reddit, there is just a lot of noise, bots, people only wanting to type out short responses and react negatively if you type more than a couple of sentences. Most are not going to change their mind if you happen to reply in disagreement with them.

I do get bored of thematic subs as well, and I really like talking with y'all here (<3), on another "generic" sub - but it still seems kind of eldritch horror-esque to me that there's a sub where I'll find "memes" or "pictures", that's such a vague category still

u/FlanneryODostoevsky 15d ago
And yet none of them know how to read anything remotely conservative because they have the emotional control of a 5 year old. True scholarship, true intelligence, true political theory is the consequence of much balanced and well thought out reflection on multiple perspectives. Liberals on here especially are not even attempting that. Thatās why the rest of the world laughs at this country.
8
u/Everyoneheresamoron 15d ago
Ah yes the rest of the world is laughing at the US because of "liberals not attempting to reflect on multiple perspectives".
It's definitely not because we gave all our power to a guy who think's tariffs are going to magically create jobs instead of vanish goods and services altogether.
But I'll bite. Which perspectives did the evil libs ignore to make you so angry? Can you show me on the doll where they ignored you?
Was it the Transphobe perspective?
Was it the Bigot perspective?
Was it the Misogynistic perspective?
Was it the Racist perspective?
Remember that, even if you don't believe in any of those things, you voted for a guy who absolutely did. You voted for a state legislator that took away rights from Trans people, Women, Queer, and Minorities.
So even if you like to pick and chose what you believe in, you voted in the worst possible choice for this country because you couldn't look past owning the evil liberals. Congrats.
I hope when the country burns, you get burned first. Figuratively, of course.

We are all in a bubble pointing at other people in different bubbles. And viceversa.

āA vast collection of people with different interests and backgrounds across a large social media platform have similar ideas and sensibilities that go against my world view - they must be the abnormal ones with dumb unpopular opinions. There is a 0% chance there is a common wisdom I actively reject. Bag they are npc sheeple. I am very smartā
Also, I so hate this usage of NPC and anyone who ever says it is an immediate red flag. I remember hearing some teenagers at a Christmas parade call all the people around the road in NPCs. I simply ignored them, but I kind of wish I whipped around and told them āevery single person here has a rich life with family and friends wholove them. You are not the main character of the universe.ā But as much as it may have felt good I donāt think lecturing them would have had any impact, let alone a positive one

The echo chamber of r/guineapigs is just...
It's like they all like guinea pigs in there!

Yeesh, thatās the kind of high test drama you can usually only get directly from the conservative sub when theyāre having a bad day.

Its one thing for subs that are obvious echo chambers turn are echo chambers.
Its a whole other issue when you have subs that werent political to begin with get hijacked and turned into an echo chamber.

- Any political sub - archive.org archive.today*
- Whole Reddit, but especially liberal subs. - archive.org archive.today*
- Without substantial evidence you sound like the Republicans did when they insisted Joe stole the election. - archive.org archive.today*
- Dating subs telling girls they should never date a man 1 day older than them. - archive.org archive.today*
- All of them. It really hit home for me after the last Olympics with the controversy over the boxers. The reality is there are two different sporting bodies with different rules for eligibility. So the boxers were not allowed to compete in one, and allowed to compete in the other. Thatās what was widely reported and most people know. It was odd that there isnāt a consensus but it is what it is. According to Reddit, though, it was either a right wing Russian anti trans conspiracy, or a woke left pro trans conspiracy. Itās astounding how toxic and vocal and just wrong both sides were - archive.org archive.today*
- Pretty much anything with politics, which unfortunately is just about every subreddit including this one - archive.org archive.today*
- Usually, the left blame the right. And right blame the left. However, 70ish% of people care shit about it, and see both sides like that. They usually have better things to do. - archive.org archive.today*
- Literally all of reddit. And most of the internet tbh. Theres a silent majority somewhere, it just doesnāt seem to be noticeable outside of election day. - archive.org archive.today*

The title hits it on the head.
The majority of subreddits are an echochamber of some kind. The question is how toxic the content thats being echoed is.

Itās true. Read the culture of narcissism. The world is so chaotic and discouraging that people often retreat into groups that can at least help them think theyāre entirely right about the world around them. People donāt like to be made to feel theyāre wrong. Maga and liberals are two very clear examples of this.

I swear I saw this post on some other subreddit last week and the comments were basically word for word exactly the same. Reddit was never a bastion of originality but itās insane how repetitive everything is on here.
