Yes, but that means you're not a reputable source.

Well, you are totally welcome to think that. I respect your right to feel that way. But I'll keep posting stuff from Reason, because I like them. Thanks!

Then feel free to start your own community and post The Onion articles.

I created this community. And I allow posting from the Daily Mail.

Be the change you wanna see, comrade.

Liking them isn't enough, they should be a reliable source of factual information. They're not. They're incredibly biased and their bias is towards a world view that's absurd. Just because your filter bubble feels good doesn't mean it's not harmful to you.

Liking them isn’t enough, they should be a reliable source of factual information. They’re not.

I happen to think they are pretty reliable, and def not any less reliable than most news orgs. All news orgs are biased.

I don't think anyone on Lemmy can really talk about "filter bubble." I mean, Lemmy is an even bigger filter bubble than reddit! lol

But hey, I like them. I totally get lots of others don't. I'm cool with you thinking that. All good, friend!
