Echo Chamber

You folks should really get out in the open and look at data and facts in a non-biased, non- agenda fashion.

When all you read, say and hear is what you already believe, you’ve probably done yourself a disservice.  
Sorry. The world doesn't work the way you tell it to.

    More specifics as to what you're relating this to would help, Edson.

    You mean like reading up and getting data and facts from here?

    I'm guessing, Edson, you are expressing some exasperation over that way we often will see something on social media and the news and echo that sentiment in kind of a knee jerk reaction.  Kind of like what I have been saying about slogans and how they are easy to repeat but we don't always scrutinize what they say.  And anyway, actions speak louder than words.  It might be a good idea for us to actually take action, live what we say rather than just repeat what others say because we want to be accepted.

    If that's the case, I'm cool with that.  If I say something that sounds hollow or trite, call me on that shit!

    That statement could apply to anything.

    Does it, or to something in particular?

    To some ones in particular?

    Spit it out! ;)

    But everyone knows that data and facts along with numbers and the weather have a strong liberal bias.

    "if you don't agree with me, you're biased/live in an echo chamber/are a sheep". 

    i think many trump supporters have that tattooed on their asses.

    I've been accused of the same thing by Democrats in the election thread. This particular form of arrogance appears across the entire political spectrum.

    Kinda ironic posting this to a forum dedicated to a single band. I just come here to confirm my addiction is normal and justify my overspending.

    I thgink we should start a misinformation thread and we can all look up facts and present them to disprove the erroneous.

    Any takers?  There have been some doozies that I'd like to debunk.

    Without a clear subject being discussed I struggle to differentiate the left and right based on their behavior. Most people somewhere in the middle don't need to beat their chests all day long.
