Episode description

It is commonly assumed that social media creates echo chambers, which play a role in making us more polarized and entrenched in our own viewpoints. But today Stefani challenges this assumption, and actually argues that something totally else is to blame for our polarized and angry political landscape: our humanity. It's just us. And specifically, our propensity to jump to conclusions. Learn more about how this all plays out in the Twitterverse in today’s episode.
