Would be a real shame if folks flooded that inbox, rendering it useless.

It’s 8:49AM and Aid Access is still being censored on Meta… notably, Trump’s WH account is not similarly censored. Screenshots taken just now

If you’re still on Insta, go follow @aidaccess right away! The screenshots below are what their account looks like right now, after Fuckerberg censored them for providing information about abortion pills.

This happened to me today too, after I specifically unfollowed the POTUS, FLOTUS, VP and White House accounts yesterday. It automatically made me follow FOTUS and Melania.
Facebook is forcing accounts to follow Donald Trump - users have been reporting.

Their latest move reeks of desperation—forcing users to follow Trump is a blatant violation of user autonomy. Zuckerberg’s pandering to political power undermines the very essence of free choice on social media.

Sen. Mazie Hirono is my new hero. Oh holy night, this woman is amazing.

She also should have been President
I have serious concerns about Pete Hegseth’s background, including his mismanagement of non-profit organizations, accusations of sexual assault and drinking problems, blatant disregard for the contributions of female service members, and support for war crimes and torture.

The boot-licking continues. For his next trick, Zuck is going to rename Meta as the “We ❤️ MAGA Trump 4Eva Media Corp.”

Started 2025 off with medium-rare red meat, the way God and nature intended (I’m still not MAGA I promise, just a fan of animal proteins!) #EatRedBleedBlue

THIS is why the NRA and MAGA want us to focus on “school hardening” instead of gun safety. So they can make money off of dead kids. #EndGunViolenceNow
School Haredning is Profitable
2021 revenues were $3.1 billion

About 39,000 children witnessed gun violence at school since Columbine. We pay about $79,487 per victim for their profits
