Life hack: Whenever you’re tempted to use the words “biased echo chamber”, try using the phrase “people who disagree with me” instead.

They’re biased (they disagree with me). They’re in an echo chamber (they disagree with me).

@mikegorrie.bsky.social Anybody who vaguely gestures at “Aussie values” like they’re promoting something positive. The people that appeals to are the same people booing at a Welcome to Country.

It’s one thing for the government not to jail you for expressing a racist idea.
