    I remember taking an anthropology class years ago where the professor was attempting to explain how difficult it is to overcome our own personal bias. Her example was statements like “How did so and so win the election, nobody I know voted for them”. The point was we are more isolated than we realize because even within our own cities we tend to interact with only specific groups. My point is just because it doesn’t exists within your bubble doesn’t mean it’s not widespread.
