Make sure to check your Instagram accounts to ensure you’re not automatically following Trump and Vance. (I was previously following Biden and Harris.) Apparently I was and now I have unfollowed!

Facebook did this too as I was following Jill Biden First Lady all the sudden the current one shows up instead and the White House or Pres one too so have to adhuzt
I unfollowed and blocked all of them before Monday and by early this morning I was following all of them again. It isn’t just bc the accounts carry over.
This is the only social media I have anymore until the people that run this site betray us for more money. Then all social media can go fuck themselves.
on a side note, make sure you weren't automatically following Donald Trump's official Facebook. I found my account automatically followed, as well as a lot of my friends who reported the same thing. Definitely check! (pretty sure this is absolutely illegal somehow to force follow the president)
Ditched Instagram. The algorithms are crap. You’re constantly barraged with ads. And I had way too many posts that were flagged as spam, and removed, with no way to contest it (none of which were spam or close to it).
Yes, I immediately blocked those losers, but it keeps coming unblocked. I noticed it bc they keep coming up in my feed & it pisses me off. I don’t want to hear or see of them. So make sure you keep an eye on those accounts.
Yes this happen to me and META then came out and explained why ITS THE ROLE NOT THE PERSON but I do not believe this so must stay diligent unfollow and block
Go back and check it again...a lot of people are saying they unfollowed and then came back later to find they're following again.
I have not confirmed this to be the case since I yeeted all Meta apps and Twitter from my phone
On Twitter, Facebook, Instagram, and probably other platforms, the official accounts like POTUS, FLOTUS, and VP, for the office are handed over to the new office holder each cycle.
Politicians also often have their own personal accounts on many platforms.
Save your energy. This has happened every time a presidential transition has happened since social media started. The poster above just wants you to get angry for clicks.
I can't remember my password so I did the forgot password. They sent me a code and when I entered it they said something went wrong. I'm going to try again later.
Or, you can delete all meta products and support Bluesky instead. We don’t need Zuck or his products. He needs us. Doesn’t it make sense to focus our support on the app that is not bending the knee to Donald?
I double-checked all of my Meta accounts and none of them are following these idiots. It might be because I have a small following - I suspect they’re primarily targeting accounts with a larger reach. 🤷🏻♀️

Look. Meta fucking sucks. But this isn’t Zuck secretly getting you to follow Trump. This has happened quite a few times already.
All this outrage for all the wrong reasons.
I instantly blocked everyone of them!
Just to be sure.

This has happened FOR YEARS NOW.
