i don't like seeing it either, but cocooning yourself into an echo chamber doesn't help thing at all.

I disagree, actually. I never have productive conversations regarding Marxism, for example, with liberals. Opinions being diverse does not necessarily mean they add value to conversations.

Still, I have multiple accounts of the same name, I use when I want to talk to different people.

i never expect the conversations to be productive, especially with liberals; but i don't find that the discourse forces me to re-evaluate my views and it usually strengthens them.

Sure, and that's fine. For me, it usually results in frustration and phone addiction, so it helps me not do it quite as much, even if I have a long way to go.

frustration should be expected and i think that the only way to get something positive from it is to keep your cool.
