This is possibly my favourite ever HN comment. When people talk about how terrible social media echo chambers are they're often overlooking the fact that they're living in one of a much larger scale. I find it utterly baffling that the people of the United States aren't at the gates of the Whitehouse with pitchforks over even just the healthcare issue.

We help the most when we elect to do so ourselves, not when we leave the options to be considered by those with more resources to spare. If they entertained any inclination of helping those outside their own closed circuits they’d never have accumulated and stockpiled such resources to begin with. I explain this further over here: https://nilskidoo.blackblogs.org/lady-windermeres-fanzine/

But if you'd prefer to restrain all preaching to the choir, to persist with fantasy, then by all means rub your mighty ban-hammer.
