I pretty sure everyone has a real life filter bubble around them, that is they disproportionately interact with certain people in real life (think rich people socialize with rich people, academics with academics and so on). Part of what makes mass social media unpleasant (in the same way that tabloids are unpleasant) is that you are reminded of how the average person thinks, which is very different from how a people in your social circle might think. The social networks are maybe too effective in creating echo chambers on the other hand (the distribution of people you interact with is far more peaked than in real life)
