Just days after Trump returned to the White House, Instagram is censoring abortion content. This is what Aid Access' account looks like right now - posts about how to get abortion medication has been blurred out.

Republicans have been desperate to stop abortion pills, which they know are the primary reason patients are able to get care in spite of state bans.

If they can't stop providers from dispensing pills, they'll try to stop patients from finding them.

This is terrifying. I went to go look, and I had a hard time getting the aid access page to come up in the IG search. Anyone else?

Yep, it didn't come up in a search for me either.

I am trying to keep track of bills here in Mississippi that might have repercussions for the US (like Dobbs). We have SR 19 that wants to call on Congress to repeal the FACE Act and pardon those in violation of it. Any concern that this will further hinder rights for women across the nation?

Finally was able to find/follow this insta account. I am still trying to wrap my head around the fact that at age 12 I had no problems or issues checking Anais Nin’s Delta of Venus out from my local public library but now, at nearly 60, Mark Zuckerberg is censoring what I am allowed to read online 🙄

What I don’t understand is why are we allowing a small group of people hijack our democracy?

Did you catch this Atlantic article? https://www.theatlantic.com/health/archive/2025/01/ulipristal-acetate-ella-mifepristone-abortion-pill/681419/

The IG profile is entirely unfindable—it’s being censored as are all abortion related comments

Just what DeathSantis did here in FL with Amendment 4 🤬 He of course was sued bc it’s illegal, but it’s too late then!

This is crucial information for us to have, and I'm grateful that you getting it and passing it to us. I'll pass it further.

Isn't even blurred out on mine.

FAFO Zuckerberg, FAFO
Just like Blue Sky is well on it's way to replacing Twitter, something will come along to replace Insta also.

So much for "no more fact-checking" because "censorship" baaaad. -- Zucker speaking to suckers

Delete Meta. They only care about money.

I am getting ready to deactivate my Instagram account. To much trash on it now and unfair control of content. elon musk ruined Twitter and now is ruining Instagram. Thank the Universe for Bluesky!

This is an attack on free speech BY THE GOVERNMENT. 😡

wilderkruz.bsky.social•107 days ago

I wonder if our IG had this too. #nwaaf #abortionfund

donnafrano.bsky.social•107 days ago

I have got to move out of this damn hellhole of a state.

ladyjbluestar.bsky.social•106 days ago

I am suggesting this: You can still order Abortion meds, for $150 from https://AidAccess.org. (Their site has been blurred.) -- persist. If you have $150 to spend, do this!! Then find your local abortion fund via https://abortionfunds.org/donate/ and give the pills to them when you receive them!!

Which legislators are proposing bills? I'd like to follow that shitshow.
