And your use of the demonizing catch-phrase "right-wing" (TRANSLATION: Any values not vetted and anointed as Sufficiently Politically Correct by the MSM) tells me something about you.

But bless your little heart. You’re trying.

A random CNN contributor is pointing out echo chambers are bad. Do I need to explain why twitter isn't an "echo chamber" vs. Parler? Twitter is filled with left wing and right wing and centrist people. Parler is filled with right wing extremists that only hear the "echo" of their own voice.

CNN: Parler Is A ‘Threat To Democracy’ And Is ‘Bad For The Country’

“I think big picture Pamela, here’s the concerning trend line here: people are going more and more into their own echo chambers, more and more into their own bubbles, especially Trump voters,” said Stelter, who is often referred to as CNN’s “house eunuch” by conservative pundit tucker Carlson.

“Mmm, that’s what I was gonna say,” Brown said, nodding in agreement.

“There’s this new social media app called Parler getting a lot of attention because conservatives are leaving, saying they’re leaving Twitter and Facebook, going off to Parler because they believe Parler is a safer space for them,”
Stelter continued. “What we’re seeing is even more of a bunker mentality in right-wing media, and ultimately that’s not good for the country.”

Brown then offered up her words of wisdom on the issue: “No, it’s not good, it’s a threat to democracy, um, that these people are in echo chambers and getting fed a diets of lies, essentially.”
Of course they are.

The left keeps telling me there's no censorship out there and that private companies can do what they want.

Hope the keep that logic in place for Parler.

..what would you like to be referred to as? I have seen people complaining about being called "Trumpers", "right-wingers", "Trumpists", etc. What's the politically correct name you would like people to refer to Trump's supporters as?
