The way I discovered this is also quite interesting: Russian state media uses every opportunity to spread chaos and misinformation, they also almost always lie and they have picked up the "automatically followed JD Vance/Trump/Melania" story, this in turn piqued the interest of fact checkers working for the media covering Russia which I trust and… Here it is!

It all coincided with "technical issues" (no way to confirm whether they indeed are, but this is what Facebook claims) when people couldn't search for certain hash tags (republican, democrat) which gave further rise to conspiracy theories.
What can I say, this sure doesn't make the likes of Facebook any more trustworthy, but falling for conspiracies is even worse 🤷
