I still don't get what you're saying.

Your original comment talks about echo chambers and insinuates that people at Uber or Palantir "know better" than to discuss their political opinions.

Was that a good faith attempt to engage in discussion? What kind of response did you expect? How does it benefit you to come in and say the equivalent of "you all suck and wouldn't listen to me anyway"?

I don't hope to change your mind. But I want to change the mind of all the people reading this thread.
