  What a stupid argument. Some people are obviously trolls or commenting in bad faith. Blocking people like that does not build an echo chamber. If this person had said “block every person who disagrees with you” then yeah, you’re going to end up with an echo chamber.

  Personally, I think it’s important to avoid blocking people so that I can see them spreading false information and that they get challenged on their BS. But plenty of people are coming to social media/ forums/ whatever you consider Lemmy to engage with other people who share a similar hobby. Not everyone needs to deal with assholes fighting over (usually American) politics.

  Also be careful about watering your yard this time of year in Minneapolis. You may accidentally spray the roads and ICE clearly can’t figure out slick surfaces. Would be terrible if they got stuck or damaged their vehicles.

  Sure, if we ignore the fact that those engineers had all of their work checked by people we called calculators.

  In American English, we say "grower" vs "show-er". Grower being like blood penis and show-er for flesh penis.
