How do information silos impact public perception and political discourse?

Information silos create isolated echo chambers where narratives from figures like Elon Musk and media personalities get amplified without context or counterpoints. Jason Johnson points out that people are no longer 'accidentally stumbling' onto different perspectives, as audiences consume content within their established bubbles. The real opportunity for political engagement lies in reaching the large numbers of people who have 'tuned out' - those unaware of how policy decisions directly impact their daily lives. Breaking through these silos requires connecting abstract political issues to concrete consequences, like lost meal programs or school funding cuts.
