No Opinions Allowed (On Reddit)

Here is a quick comparison of r/Politics and r/the_Donald.  Notice how r/Politics gets all their talking points from only a handful of news companies? That’s what you call an ‘echo chamber.’  If you want to study the detrimental effects of brainwashing, that’s a good place to gather samples.

Now look at the right side of the picture. R/the_Donald.  Diverse sources, lively discussion, personal stories, memes, all sorts of stupid and fun wacky shit.  I’m not an r/the_Donald subscriber, and my views don’t exactly align with that subreddit, but if you ask me, that place is a hell of a lot more interesting than the echo chamber over on the left.
