I don't fully agree with this sentiment. There have been plenty of times where comment sections have pointed out additional context/bad and/or missing information on articles that I wouldn't have otherwise known about. But on the other hand, they also can lead to cultivating echo chambers, as already mentioned. I think the best way to combat this is to teach people how to better recognize internal biases/prejudices and circle jerking, AKA some form of critical thinking.

Oh for sure. I'm over simplifying for shock value. The real problem is our brains haven't adjusted to being able to access communities further away than what's on the other side of the nearest hill
