Just confirmed that on #instagram in the UK this morning, searches for #democrat result in a 'results are hidden as they contain sensitive content'. Not the same for searching the hashtag republican. Also surprised that the search page in the app shows a sea of porn. I had to google how to delete my account, which is now done and the app is deleted off my phone.
Find me on #Pixelfed (using my #fediverse account)

Claims this is a technical error, but either way I'm not looking back. 8 years ago Meta sold users data to anyone who was willing to pay and it was used extensively to target users with politically persuasive ads. Now we have tech oligarchs seeking favour from the right wing people in power. Removing moderation and using the 'free speech' argument for allowing inflammatory hate speech. I'm not longer prepared to provide content to them.

@drfootleg Instapr0n... Why is UK doing Trump's bidding online? They should be preparing to help Canada burn down the Whitehouse again.

@ksaj The UK isn't doing anything here, it is Meta pandering to Trump and suppression of the opposition party as far as I can see. Whether by accident or with intent I'm not sure, but either way I'm off their services now for good.

@drfootleg I have an account, but don't use it. I will be doing the same.
What's the opposite of "pandering"? I'm gonna do that with Trump lol.

@ksaj The worst thing you can do to a narcissist is to not give them the attention they crave.

@drfootleg Perfect.
I'm really hoping the Canadian border patrol never lets him in the country, due to his criminal rap sheet.

@lightyisreal Good call. Thanks for pointing this out. Apologies that this didn't occur to me. Still getting used to the CW feature. I've done so retrospectively now. I don't know if it automatically propagates to replies? I realise it is likely too late for this post. I typically don't post politics at all, but I will try to remember in future should events prompt me to deviate from my usual constructive maker content only posting policy.
