Some Facebook users were shocked to see Trump in their feeds yesterday, but that’s likely because they were already following official administration accounts.

Am I missing something? This explanation actually seems reasonable. I swear I saw a couple people last election complain they were suddenly following Biden, because they were following the POTUS account.

I’m not trying to defend the fash propaganda that is Facebook, but also its users can be pretty dense.
