This isn't the only thing meta has been doing, it's been restricting the reach of LGBTQ accounts for nearly a year under its social and political content minimization policy.
Expect to see more of this with project 2025 architect Dustin Carmack in charge of policy at Meta.

SCOOP: Instagram blocked teens from searching LGBTQ-related content for months.
Posts with LGBTQ+ hashtags were hidden under Meta's “sensitive content” policy which restricts "sexually suggestive content", Meta said they are fixing this “error” after I reached out for comment.

Which means, if bird flu infects a person who is also infected with a human flu, there's a a possibility that a new hybrid strain will be created, which could be extremely bad.
