There are plenty of reasons to not want to engage with the “other side”. Exposing yourself to different viewpoints in general? All well and good. Having a discussion with people who think a fascist bombing Iran means Biden is responsible for rising gas prices? What exactly does that add to my life? Until MAGA cultists can prove they understand basic reality their opinions are useless (at best) cult propaganda lies that should be shunned from public discourse.
Granted there aren’t too many trumpets on the fediverse, but in light of the gas price comment OP of this thread I don’t think lemmy shows the echo chamber you accuse it of.
