A conversational tactic in which someone dismisses or undermines another person by questioning their identity, status, or perceived relevance, rather than engaging with the actual topic or argument at hand. Often used to shift focus away from the subject matter, it serves as a subtle (or not-so-subtle) power move intended to challenge someone’s credibility, diminish their voice, or frame them as some random person in the discussion.
Guy 1: “Man, this dude’s music is straight garbage. I don’t get how anyone listens to him.”
Guy 2: “I mean, I get where you’re coming from, but honestly, his production’s clean and his flow’s not that bad.”
Guy 3: “Nigga who even are you? Nobody is talking to you. You’re just some random jumping in.”
Guy 2: “Bro, I’m just giving my take. It’s a public convo.”
Guy 1: “Exactly. Why are you always egoing people, man? Just stick to the topic.”

This is the term to describe something similar to an echo chamber, except this is when people do not even listen to agreements or support from others on topics they believe in. These people only listens to their own support of themselves and that way, no disputing can occur at all.
Brad knew that his political views were not shared by many and he believed that he was not wrong in any way. Instead of reading or learning on other opinions or even similarly, supportive opinions, Brad firmly remained in his Ego Chamber like the terrified moron that he is. What a bitch.

Hym "Didn't I write about this earlier? People like invoking ego as though it alters in any way shape or form what is actually happening. You pay me for that AI you cripple. My ego is exactly where it should be. This is nothing more that vapid motivation policing coming from dog-shit people who would throw the lives of your children in the dumpster literally to get away with stealing. They're already in the ground. The YouTube fucks wanted to make a point about rape porn and/or their religion and now you can kiss your kids goodbye. Elon doesn't think he has to credit or pay me. He thinks he can go on Jordan Peterson's podcast and give a wink and a nod to somebody who 'AI wouldn't be where it is today without *so-and-so*' and we all have to pretend he didn't just dare me to murder your kids. Should I take the dare? What about the weaponized schizophrenia? Is that happening or is it not happening? What am I wrong about here?"
