Meta Faces Criticism Over User Accounts Transitioning to Trump Administration

Meta, the parent company of Facebook and Instagram, is under fire for automatically transitioning users to follow the official accounts of President Trump, Vice President JD Vance, and First Lady Melania Trump after the recent presidential change. The company attributes the situation to standard account transition practices during administration changes, but users have expressed outrage, calling it an invasion of choice. The controversy is compounded by a temporary block of the hashtag #democrat on Instagram, raising accusations of political bias and manipulation.
