Meta is is the news again this week, evidently doing some presumptive planning for an incoming Vance administration.
You might recall that Vance's Instagram account grew about a half million users the week after inauguration.
Lot of upset folks "We didn't sign up for him!"
Worse, they unfollowed and found themselves refollowing the next week.
After "diligent forensic analysis", Meta sheepishly admitted "we took all the users of the previous vice president's account (someone named Kamala Harris) and thought they might be interested in the new vice president as well!
Umm..no.
Many pissed off users blocked Trump's heir apparent and Meta eventually cleaned up their mess.
Welp.....he's back!
There are private companies that monitor trends in online usage. They noticed something quite extraordinary last Friday. The official JD Vance Instagram propaganda account once again skyrocketed in the number of users. This happened after Vance bravely went against conventional wisdom and praised Orange Hitler for his so-called "peace initiative" in Gaza.
Yes, the usual suspects found themselves once again "following" JD Vance. Many people unfollowed immediately, naturally.
But this was not "regular JD Vance" propaganda.....this was "new and improved" JD Vance propaganda:
You can unfollow.....but his words of wisdom still show up in your Instagram feed!
But wait! There's MORE!
You can BLOCK JD Vance from your Instagram feed.....and his shrill fawning obsequious posts STILL show up!
Someone, somewhere, seems Yahweh-damned determined to get the Vance message out to the general public.
I have no idea who could be behind this nefarious plot!
