Let’s say there is a tulip lovers club, where they talk about tulips, their variations and how to grow them. Let’s say someone new joins the club, this new person starts saying that tulips are rubbish and that roses are better or something like that. This person becomes so insistent with these statements that they end up being kicked out of the club. Before leaving, the person calls the club an “Echo Chamber” about tulips.

Would this person be right?

    In theory, yes, that’s what it is.

    In practice, accusations of being an echo chamber are mostly made against inclusive spaces by people who are upset that they can’t air non inclusive opinions

      And there’s where Poppers enters with “You can’t be tolerant with the intolerant”.

      Although, so any group of people that shares believes is an Echo Chamber regardless?
