Nytimes did an infograph on political bubbles, ie are your neighbors all Democrats or Republicans? Turns out Republicans are the ones who are less likely to live in a bubble of conservative beliefs.
- monoideism 5y ago> Turns out Republicans are the ones who are less likely to live in a bubble of conservative beliefs That's not surprising, given that liberal beliefs dominant our cultural landscape (eg: mainsteam media, Hollywood, social media, tech companies, colleges+universities, primary+seconday education, most corporations, etc, etc). It's pretty much impossible to live in a total bubble of conservative beliefs unless you live in a compound in a rural area. On the other hand, it's quite easy to live in a bubble of liberal beliefs in a typical large American city.
