Summary
Meta’s Instagram faced criticism after searches for “Democrat” or “Democrats” displayed a “results hidden” message, while “Republican” returned 3.3 million posts.
The issue emerged after Donald Trump’s inauguration, which Meta owner Mark Zuckerberg attended.
Meta attributed the problem to a technical error affecting political hashtags and promised a quick fix.
Critics, however, flagged concerns over perceived political bias, especially as Meta has recently shifted content moderation policies and aligned closer to the Republican administration, including donations to Trump and appointing a Republican as global affairs chief.

Only those who replied. Many didn’t who likely read better.
There were many articles about conservatives saying that meta was blocking them. Twitter too. Show me how I “erred”.
