It’s the Kendrick Lamar strategy. You could act like Drake and hurl dozens of allegations, or be like Kendrick and just make the same allegation over and over again across five songs. Nobody remembers what Drake hurled at Kendrick, but everyone remembers that Kendrick accused Drake of being a pedo.

One thing I find interesting about the echo chamber complaint is that an echo chamber just won a presidential election.
Put aside the convo of whether it’s “good” or “bad” for a moment. The far right has devoted enormous resources + time to building echo chambers & loathes spaces they don’t control

The "bluesky is an echo chamber" think pieces that keep popping up really tickle me because they show how certain people genuinely believe social media should be for debating and arguing and not talking about the things that make you happy and sharing art with the world.
