    While the whole idea of limiting to only things that agree with ones view can result in a bubble, avoiding misinformation and propaganda is fine.

    Unless that opinion is about the misinformation and propaganda. But a little goes a long way.

      A big part of the problem is that we are generally not personally suited to identifying misinformation and propaganda ourselves, but the people historically relied upon to be a part of that process (news reporters/agencies) are more motivated by money than by a desire to properly inform.
