In the last year, Meta, along with other major social media platforms, has noticeably deprioritized its content moderation and user safety practices, the research organization Media Matters says. Instagram specifically has a long history of allowing hate speech and misinformation to prosper on the app, including permitting virulently anti-LGBTQ accounts, far-right extremists, and right-wing advertisers to post false and harmful rhetoric.
Fair. It’s one thing if right wingers flock there and another if Meta tries to take advantage of it, though. I posted a second article in this thread.
