I agree with the echo chamber; but I am very sure what you are really looking at, at the base, the integral variable, is simply a lack of information. They don't read or discuss ideas seriously.

Absent adequate information they must fill in the blank spaces ala Gestalt.

So that is where the echo chambers come in. They are the filler.

Larry McMurty does a fine job of laying out the 1850's mind set.

Concentrate on the level of primitive thinking and you have it i.e. where the filler goes.

"Because the epistemic closure keeps reinforcing their loons, they have come to believe that is reality."

Which bit Karl Rove and Mitt Romney on the ass last election, as they BOTH believed Mitt had won the election, until reality ruled that was not the case. As they get themselves further deluded in their own little echo chamber world, they'll no doubt be shocked again and again as reality rules against them. The 20 million conservative geezers that watch Fox "News" are not America.

Talk about epistemic closure, CJ KNEW Breitbart had hacked Anthony Weiner. After Weiner confessed, CJ probably still believes that.
