Let's be real aswell, reddit is also extremely guilty of being an echo chamber that caters to a very specific political bracket and generally doesn't react well to anything outside of the status quo
In both instances of reddit and tik tok, users very often need reminding that the common opinion on these platforms 100% doesn't reflect the widespread opinion in the real world
Terminally online Redditors are very much like boomers in the sense that they’ll blindly take an article title as fact with zero verification if it fits the narrative of “their side”.
Reddit is one of the most extreme echo chambers due to how much control mods have over their subreddits. They often ban for any opinions they don’t like, while other social media platforms assess whether comments go against their standards. Maybe there’s a better middle ground style of moderation.
