Man there was a video a while back about how echo chambers are actually probably not a huge factor in polarization in and of themselves, but that people are actually polarized when they encounter opinions in ways that drive them away from those opinions. Wish I could find it, it was really compelling and I can't do the topic justice.
It was on YouTube or anywhere else? Sounds interesting.
YouTube. I'll see if I can find it in my google history or something.
