So what if there are echo chambers? Do you deride them as much when they're called "best practices" in business, management, programming, HR, etc.? Unless the exception suddenly proves the rule, much of our lives is shaped by "massive" echo chambers. I suspect there's the cliche of objectivity lurking behind this, an anti-intellectual mockery of opinions and shared values. Nothing having to do with human creation has ever been objective. Everything people think, is subjective. Start there, and tell me what's wrong with echo chambers as something that isn't just a restatement of the banalities of societal malaise. But I also understand that shitposting can feel good.

You seem to be saying there's no difference between anything. That is not true. The same set of inane 1-2 line comments repeated ad infinitum simply contains less actionable information than a single well thought out, coherent, and accurate response in a more specialised subreddit. There is nothing useful you can do with reading comments in r/politics. For the record, lots of people deride the so called 'best practices' in business etc. I'm not sure if that is a serious question. Business, management, programming, HR - all are filled with many people doing utterly atrocious things. Not sure why you think people criticising echo chambers are okay with 'massive' echo chambers.
