It does, but I don't think even a silly social media account will counteract what happens in race broadcasts. Grosjean and Vettel are the best examples of being painted in very specific ways, and Alonso too of course.
Either way, if suddenly you had to replace 20 F1 drivers with drivers nobody had heard of, it'd be back to normal within a couple of years.
