Instagram is cracking down on “misinformation” about vaccinations being spread across the photo sharing app by blocking hashtags that draw out “verifiably false” posts about the controversial subject.
Now the obvious question here before you continue reading this big pile of crap is: are the imbeciles working at Instagram doctors???
The people who post crap on Instagram aren’t doctors either, some could be but definitely not all but this doesn’t give Instagram a right to ban their free speech.
Is there at least 1 single doctor in the entire facility of Instagram? Even if there is, is he qualified to discuss about vaccines? Has he personally conducted any studies into this?
The thing is that we are living in clown world right now and less and less will start to make sense, things will just get dumber and dumber, just like in the movie IDIOCRACY.
The only solution to this mass dumbness is to return to dictatorial style leaderships. Capitalism only creates mass retardation. China is the perfect example in the world, they are a mix of communist-nationalist-capitalist system. They are the perfect hybrid.
They are patriots, they don’t want the Muslim Uyghurs, they have a strong communist leadership which only has in mind the welbeing of the nation and a capitalist economic system. Companies have rights but rights DEFINED BY THE STATE, companies in China can’t do what the companies in the West do, they can’t ban you like Instagram for vaccines for example if talking about vaccines is not forbidden by the state
So with that said, the story reports that:
Inaccurate and misleading anti-vaccination messages on social media are thought to be one of the reasons why vaccination rates have dropped in recent years, with an estimated 169 million children around the world missing out on the first dose of the measles vaccine between 2010 and 2017, according to recent numbers from charity Unicef.
The Facebook-owned platform already blocks obvious hashtag terms used to spread false information, such as #vaccinescauseautism, #vaccinescauseaids and #vaccinesarepoison, but its policy is now being extended to address vaccine hashtags that seem innocent on the surface.
For example, a hashtag like #vaccines1234 does not contain anything alarming in its wording, but if it is found to be used in a number of posts to promote verifiably false vaccine misinformation it will be added to the block list.
When a hashtag is blocked, users are presented with no results when searching it on the social network.
However, Instagram’s approach continues to only targets misinformation about vaccines and not anti-vax opinions, which it says is not something it would take action on.
Instagram did not specify a limit on the number of times a hashtag is being abused before blocking it, stating that it will block hashtags whereby the content surfaced on the hashtag page contains a “certain amount” of verifiably false vaccine misinformation.
