Went to visit this godforsaken place and was terrified by the amount of racist/xenophobic/nazi/misogynistic/incel/far-right posts and comments.
Was it always like that? Am I too used to being on Lemmy (or Fediverse in general)? Is it just my feed or is it like this for everybody?
Its owned by Zucc, who looks up to Musk. They enabled all the bigots to be the worst version of themselves.
Depends on your feed. rn most people are getting gore lol. Some part of the algorithm got fucked and it looks like liveleak.
Most of the racism I see on ig comedic and self aware. Not that it’s good, but it’s not meant as a far-right agenda pushing racism. More of a “I’m gonna make fun of minorities bc I think it’s funny and I don’t care about politics”
Stop going to nazi bars.
You will never find a more wretched hive of scum and villainy than instagram.

I don’t use, but I assume this is an effect of Zuckerberg cozying up to the orange man and rolling back moderation of this kind of thing.
Your algorithm I guess - I hardly see any political content there and when I do is mostly the opposite, or satire.
