I think spending a lot of time in echo chambers with like minded people will hinder folk in seeing the world for what it is. You will likely end up going round and round in circles reinforcing the wrongs of the opposing side. Minimising any alleged flaws in your own party line.
When you look at your own views and you agree with everything team A says, and disagree with everything team B says something is up. You are not thinking for yourself.
It is comfortable to join a polotical team. It's almost like supporting a sports team. Thoughtless brain dead support. The later is harmless, in politics pretty destructive IMO. But let's be honest, it is pretty weak. Jumping on a team with no room for even the slightest bit of empathy for the other viewpoint is what is killing America right now IMO. I dread to think how bad it gets in 2024. No answers for how this gets solved. Maybe the slight chance the narrative unfolds that those hard left and right individuals are in reality brainwashed cucks who have been sold a story.
