I'd usually heard the echo chamber described as more local than all of reddit: it's /r/conspiracy+alexjones+moonlanding, /r/liberalism+antigmos+politics, /r/guns+conservatism+alabama, /r/sanfrancisco+startups+paulgraham. The counter to that is +random, +bestof (In theory), and +news (In theory).

At hubski, /r/guns becomes #guns, but mk is much more complex, and the hope is that mk + kleinbl00 + OftenBen ends up as a union of #economics + #selfdefense + #foodforthought + #filmindustry + #altgov.
