If you think you truly are up against an echo chamber then it’s in your best interest not to make a big show of martyrdom, claiming to be persecuted by it. Most posts that mention being downvoted become targets for further downvoting. Don’t break the fourth wall.
- FirmwareBurner 2y agoSo the echo chamber's reaction when called an echo chamber is to.... behave even more like an echo chamber? And I'm the one in the wrong for it?
- Apocryphon 2y agoIt’s not about what’s right or wrong, it’s just trying to appeal to a place’s sense of shame when you’ve failed to secure any local support just makes you look bad, and like you’re grandstanding.
- FirmwareBurner 2y agoI'm not trying to secure support, I don't give a shit about that since I'm not running for president, I'm trying to speak my mind. If people don't want to hear it it's their loss, not mine. The only reason I was pointing it out the downvotes is that I'm baffled about the amount of ignorance and groupthink on a website of people who see themselves as free and critical thinkers, yet display the same pre-programmed NPC behavior as bots. If a comment doesn't match their world view, they downvote without giving a second thought to look deeper into the claim.
