I would say lack of awareness or even absolute delusion can thrive without any particular bias.

- Sharlin 1y agoYes, but when reading these sorts of news it's a good habit to spend a moment reflecting on one's own potential cognitive blind spots as well.
- fuzzfactor 1y agoThat's the hard part, you got that. If you're a staunch liberal or conservative and there's strong information flow where the authors are aligned with your own tendencies or talking points you have adopted, it seems almost frictionlessly neutral. Compared to info biased the other way where you notice quite fast and think "hey this isn't a neutral account" and quit listening right there. It's even worse because it make actual neutral good-faith communication more difficult to recognize :\
