Bubbleness isn't about the viewpoint, it is about the difference between bubble perception vs global perception.
If you read reddit/twitter, a common statement was something like "The police will never be able to find him - no one will cooperate". "Must be hard to find someone when there are 150million suspects". Basically, treating him like a modern day robin hood.
When, back in real life, the news of the day seems to be that he was caught at a McDonalds after two random employees noticed him and called the police on him.
- kelseyfrog 2y agoIf you want to make a statement about bubbles, then you have to ground it in global perception which is operationalizable and empirically verifiable - speculation isn't epistemologically responsible.
- IncreasePosts 2y agoI'm not particularly worried about verification or epistemologically responsibility when something is manifestly obvious. The same reason I'm not jumping out of an airplane without a parachute even if I haven't read a study on the relative effectiveness of parachutes vs no parachutes when jumping out of an airplane.
- kelseyfrog 2y agoSorry, I hate to burst your bubble, but social facts ESPECIALLY need to be tested before being assumed because humans are particularly susceptible to typification, legitimization, and reification.
