Restrictions on Donald Trump's Facebook and Instagram lifted
Meta lifts final restrictions and says US voters should be able to hear from presidential nominees.
Meta has lifted the final restrictions on Donald Trump’s Facebook and Instagram accounts in the run up to US presidential elections in November.
The ex-US president and convicted felon’s accounts were suspended in 2021 after he praised supporters who stormed the US Capitol on 6 January.
Trump’s accounts, which combined have over 60 million followers, were re-instated in 2023 but subject to additional monitoring, which has now been removed, the social media giant said in a blog post.
Meta said it had a responsibility to allow political expression and that Americans should be able to hear from presidential nominees on an equal basis.

Why now? Idiots.

“All I can say is that if I’m elected President, we will pursue Election Fraudsters at levels never seen before, and they will be sent to prison for long periods of time,” Trump wrote. “We already know who you are. DON’T DO IT! ZUCKERBUCKS, be careful!”
At the very least, even if Zuck isn't the best example, it's worth considering that the further conservatives descend into fascism, the more we'll see people take the easier option of not resisting.
The amount of projection is incredible.
