It's a strawman argument, of course there are many groups that have nothing to do with politics and echo chamber is wholly inappropriate. Think about your hobby or friend groups, certainly seems fine to have those be little islands in the internet sea.

You are also correct there is nothing new here, groups have been able to create very small echo chambers if they want, many options today.

Nor do they have to be "echo chambers", there are places in the middle which largely remain unexplored. This is where I've charted my course in ATProto
