Interesting. The screenshots shared with me by a friend:

Given the corporate media sane-washing and general kissing of the ring, I choose to believe what has been shared with me directly over the "actchually, it was an awkward gesture of exuberance" milquetoast media.

Especially when the list looks like this:

Hastags that have also apparently been blocked from user experiences. Will keep updating. Range is worldwide.

"#berniesanders"

"#queer"

"#obama"

"#voteblue" (#votered remains unaffected)

"#dnc" (#rnc remains unaffected)

"#fucktrump" (#fuckbiden remains unaffected)

"#democrat" (#republican remains unaffected)

"#kamala"

"#prochoice"

"#constitution"

"#reproductiverights"

"#jan6th"

"#insurrection"

"#14thamendment "

"#republicans" (with an s)

"#fascism"

"#liberal"

"#rightwing"

“#georgeconway”

“#domesticterrorist”

“#jacksmith”

“#drumpf”

“#johnoliver”

That is not a "glitch."

Interesting posts being served up:

  • "This isn't a fight between republican and democrat. It's between communism and freedom."

  • A map showing Republicans as an overwhelming majority.

  • Photo about Democrats being more likely to call white people terrorists, while Republicans are more likely to call every other race terrorists.

They're not in the majority, but not subtle enough to avoid worming their way into peoples opinions.

Amazing. /s

The ban list seems a little bit incosistent, but is really obvious on where the bias goes. Not that Instagram were good ever.
