@caroline.gleich: Meta shut down the No Kings Instagram account during a national early voting push on Saturday. Meta says its bot detector made a mistake and has apologized. I think an apology isn’t enough two weeks before an election. This is not about left or right. If this happened to a conservative group, I would say the same thing. No single company should decide which side of a political debate gets heard. Here is what you can do today. Call your senators and your representative at 202-224-3121. Ask them to demand answers from Meta in writing and support an investigation. Turn off Instagram’s political content limit. Go to Settings, then Content Preferences, then Political Content, and choose Don’t Limit. Instagram set this to limit by default, so you may be missing posts you want to see. Share this with someone who votes. Follow me so you don’t miss the next Systems Check, where I look at the systems that run our democracy and ask who they serve. Sources: Reuters, The New Republic, AFP, and Meta’s own statement on X. #SystemsCheck #VoteEarly #Midterms2026 #Meta #instagramreels

These days censorship is a big tool for billionaires to keep themselves in control. We saw this coming.

I would bet the order to shut down the no kings posts, came directly from the king.

We gotta do something to get the money out of politics. I am so freaking sick of billionaires thinking they can twist everything.

Ya know what else worries me? The fact that when I googled polling locations and times it took forever to find the information. Local, state and federal sites would not give me information. Eventually I ended up on iwillvote.com to find the information. I found dates fairly easily but no times
