You'd be fighting against the combined 'mass' of everyone else. We're hard wired to pay attention to things that scare us, so the algorithms just scare us and make us angry and disgusted (which are probably the 2nd and 3rd most primate things to pay attention to).

Until Zuck decides he is tired of poisoning the discourse of the entire planet for ad revenue, we're stuck with it.
