doc<p><strong>The Day Instagram Blocked Democracy</strong></p>Listen to an audio version of this long-ass post. <p>On the day of Trump’s second presidential inauguration, <a href="https://www.axios.com/2025/01/21/instagram-democrat-hashtags-blocked-search" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Instagram censored search results</a> for the most popular hashtags associated with American Democrats, like “#Democrat”, “#PresidentBiden”, “#VoteBlue”, “#MichelleObama”, “#Kamala”, and dozens more. This ban lasted for 9 total hours and affected users worldwide, regardless of their content settings. During that same time, Instagram was displaying full search results for “#Republican”, “#Trump”, “#VoteRed”, “#PresidentTrump”, and every other popular Republican hashtag I tried. I found about 50 censored political tags related to Democrats, but every Republican tag was still working fine. </p><a href="https://docpop.org/wp-content/uploads/2025/01/instagram-censoring-biden.jpg" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank"></a><p>The removal of these pro-Democrat hashtags started on the evening of January 20th, 2025, coincidentally a few hours after Trump signed the “<a href="https://www.whitehouse.gov/presidential-actions/2025/01/restoring-freedom-of-speech-and-ending-federal-censorship/" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Restoring Freedom Of Speech</a>” executive act. These censored results lasted for about 9 hours, then went back to normal at around 5 am PST. I want to state again that these words were censored for all Instagram users on the website and app regardless of that user’s content settings or their location.</p><p>Meta claimed this was a technical “error” affecting hashtags “across the political spectrum,” but this is demonstrably false. I searched through the most popular hashtags used by Democrats and Republicans last night, and found that the majority of Democrat terms were being censored, while none of the popular Republican tags were affected. This selective censorship is a scary look into Meta’s updated content moderation practices and its potential alignment with the new administration.</p><p>Here’s a list of hashtags Meta censored during the first day of Trump’s second presidency. I personally confirmed these were blocked during the 9-hour period, though they appear to be restored as of this morning:</p><p>The following hashtags were actively blocked by Instagram on the first day of Trump’s second presidency. While they are now searchable again, I personally confirmed all of these hashtags were inaccessible last night.</p> <ul><li>Barack</li><li>BarackObama</li><li>Bernie</li><li>BernieSanders</li><li>Biden</li><li>Constitution</li><li>Democrat</li><li>Democrats</li><li>DNC</li><li>Fascism</li><li>FuckTrump </li><li>Insurrection</li><li>Jan6th</li><li>JohnOliver</li></ul> <ul><li>JoeBiden</li><li>Kamala</li><li>Leftist</li><li>Liberal</li><li>Liberals</li><li>MichelleObama</li><li>Obama</li><li>OccupyDemocrats</li><li>PresidentBiden</li><li>PresidentObama</li><li>Queer</li><li>ReproductiveRights</li><li>VoteBlue</li></ul> <p>And those were just the ones I could find yesterday. I’m sure there are many more. Instagram is still blocking other hashtags like ProChoice, GeorgeConway (a writer critical of Trump), JackSmith (the special counsel against Trump), 14thAmendment, and Drumpf. It’s possible those words were already being censored before Trump’s inauguration, so I didn’t include them on the list above.</p><p>During that same 9-hour window, I confirmed the following words were <strong>not</strong> being censored on IG:</p> <ul><li>AltRight</li><li>DonaldJTrump</li><li>DonaldTrump</li><li>FuckObama</li><li>FuckBiden</li><li>FuckKamala</li><li>LetsGoBrandon</li></ul> <ul><li>MelaniaTrump</li><li>PresidentTrump</li><li>Republican</li><li>RNC</li><li>Trump</li><li>VoteRed</li></ul> <p>Those words all worked. You couldn’t search for FuckTrump, but you could search for FuckObama or FuckBiden. Trump was searchable, but Biden, Kamala, Bernie, and Obama were not. You could search for MelaniaTrump, but not MichelleObama. PresidentTrump still showed millions of results, while discussions of PresidentBiden were marked as “sensitive content”. </p><p>We don’t know what caused Meta to censor these words, but we do know this was not affecting “both sides.”. This was an extremely targeted list of censored words.</p><p>As a contrast, I saw several claims on Threads and IG that TikTok was also heavily censoring content. I tested it out for myself and was still fully able to search for words like “Fascist,” “Fascism,” “Democrat,” and “Trump”. I was also able to post pro-Palestinian content like “Free Palestine” without having the post removed. If TikTok is censoring content, they are being more clever about it than Instagram is. </p><p>Though we can prove that Instagram was censoring certain hashtags last night, we can’t say why they were doing it. It’s possible this really was a computer error with no human oversight, but I’ve never heard of a computer bug that only affects people based on their political affiliation. </p><p>To understand why this happened, take a look at the context surrounding it. Last year, Trump accused Zuckerberg of election interference and threatened <a href="https://finance.yahoo.com/news/donald-trump-once-threatened-jail-112328545.html" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">to lock Mark up “for life”</a>. After Trump won the election, Zuckerberg started a series of regular visits to Mar-a-Lago for private meetings with the President-Elect. Last week, Zuckerberg announced big changes to <a href="https://www.nbcnews.com/tech/social-media/facebook-instagram-meta-changes-dei-fact-checkers-dana-white-rcna187370" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Meta’s content moderation team</a> and added Dana White (<a href="https://www.businessinsider.com/who-is-dana-white-ufc-trump-ally-meta-board-zuckerbeg-2025-1" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">a Trump loyalist</a>) to Meta’s board. Yesterday, Zuckerberg <a href="https://www.reuters.com/world/us/trumps-inaugural-brings-worlds-billionaire-elites-en-masse-dc-2025-01-21/" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">attended Trump’s inauguration along with</a> Jeff Bezos, Elon Musk, Tim Cook, Sundar Pichai, Shou Zi Chew, and several other of the richest tech oligarchs. </p><p>With all of that in mind, I find it unlikely that an Instagram error selectively silencing Trump’s political opponents would coincidentally occur on the first day of his second presidency. Given the state of *gestures broadly at everything around me*, I believe that Meta has many systems in place to quickly silence Trump’s political opponents, and last night we saw one of those systems being used. If Meta really did have an “error” yesterday, it was probably that they activated that system too early. </p><a href="https://docpop.org/wp-content/uploads/2025/01/biden.jpg" rel="nofollow noopener
