You're right about the latter. However it actually has a suggestion page where the algorithm supposingly suggest "post you may like". The contents of these arts and photography being offered is often very centered on heteronormativity, racism, fatphobia, centrism, etc.

Yeah you're right. Instagram itself kinda brings back a lot of bad things for me. I just sorta wanna say something whenever someone wanna praise it.

It is however harboring a massive nest of reactionaries. Somehow there are even more reactionaries and nazis on Instagram than Facebook.

If you're trans, remember: the point of changing your appearance and presentation is to feel better living in your own skin. Anyone who gives you grief for not meeting some arbitrary standard is welcome to go shag a cactus.

AOC thoughts 

Centrists: why do young people like Sanders so much? They must be hot for white grandpa

Youngsters: no it's his desire to redistribute wealth. We also like it when a young WOC says "every billionaire is a policy failure"

Centrists: no those two can't be related they look nothing alike. No, we need to get O'Rourke to do a Fortnite dance, that's how we'll beat Trump

Not everyone is a mechanic, not everyone wants to be a mechanic, and, if we want a world where freedom is the norm, we must stop expecting everyone to become a mechanic.

Note: this is not because these people are too dumb to be mechanics. It’s because they’re brain surgeons and space-shuttle pilots and they have three kids and they care for a loved one and they don’t have time to also be a mechanic.

@Wewereseeds not just devalued but kind of vilified almost. it's the weirdest thing to tell someone I got a hole in my pants but I sewed it back up, and their reaction is to be completely dumbstruck and almost threatened. like I'm saying I'm better than them for not just throwing out my pants and buying a new one.
