A thinking partner who isn't an echo chamber... How many of us dare to have such collaborators?
The difference between an echo chamber and a filter bubble in my mind is an echo chamber you choose to in with likeminded people, a filter bubble chooses you and you don't really see it.

Nothing like one honest look, one honest thought of Christ upon His cross.

In The 3rd Alternative, Stephen Covey urges us to chart a course beyond the suboptimal solutions to all our crises - beyond left and right, and beyond the many false choices in front of us. The 3rdAlternative is a wise and welcome echo of Einstein's warning that the problems we're facing today cannot be solved by the same level of thinking that created them.
I do sometimes feel like I function within an echo chamber and I'm just kind of preaching to the choir.
The polls and the pundits and the media seem to talk to each other. It's sort of like an echo chamber.
