If you’re referring to the “because you liked …” part, that’s for the post below, not for the threads. I personally haven’t come across any nazi posts, let alone like them, but it could be a circle thing, like you say

I think it’s quite likely they’ve learned too well about the past. If recent history (and internet-documented behavior patterns) are to be analyzed, I think it shows that people yearn for power and control over others: just look at all the karens, the reddit mods (you know which kind), the trolls, supporters of certain parties and so on.
I guess they imagine that extremist regimes will provide them with that power, without taking a moment to think “oh, wait, the chances that I’ll be the one oppressing and not the one oppressed are miniscule” (and that’s setting all other moral things aside).
It’s a scary thought, like you said.

Yeah, you’re right. When you log in, apparently it prompts you to follow all your instagram friends, and it doesn’t say that they have or don’t have accounts, just that your request is “pending”, like you’re waiting for them to reply.

A bunch of friends who actively use the app were praising it for its “freedom of speech” and “unmoderated nature”. Showed me some pretty foul things while they were at it :)) safe to say, I’ve started to move away from them
