> It is creating an echo chamber

It’s more likely the author created his own echo chamber.

My Facebook friends span the political spectrum 70% liberal and the rest some degree of conservative.

I would venture to say, 99% of political post come from my liberal friends. Some of which I will comment on, most of the time I get responses that aren’t logical and mostly insinuate I’m not a good person because I disagree.

For those people, I usually just remove from my feed. Not because I don’t care for their politics, but because they only want a one way conversation.

That is how an echo chamber is created and it’s their own doing, not Facebooks.
