This could also be bad for you, not necessarily your Mental health, but peoples world views becoming even more insular and echo chamber like.
The reality of life unfortunately is that a well rounded person should have at least some experience with things they don't want to see so that we can all have a good sense of empathy for how others live and experience life, how they think.
There's a good reason people who travel have more empathy for different cultures and are usually less racist, and why people who are told their country is the best and never experience other cultures are less empathetic and often more racist.
I'm really wary of echo chambers like a lot of people are in nowadays because they radicalize people a lot.
