The parent comment is why we need someone to start a movement making social media algorithms more transparent. The person you are responding to is misinformed about Tesla fans because he has been the victim of a social media algorithm generated echo chamber. He isn't unique, we all are victims of echo chambers and filter bubbles to some degree. The only way to fix that is to allow people to control their own feeds and disable echo chambers if they wish to.

The algorithmic structure itself is one thing and the kind of data that is fed to it to train it is another. In particular, how it learns what is an 'authoritative source' and what isn't needs to be made clear.
