I experienced the inverse of this. When I was in the Army Reserve (in the UK) and still had Instagram, I was purchasing a lot of tactical kit and this caused Instagram to promote far-right groups to me. I couldn't be further from the kind of person who would involve themselves with such grimy associations (and it's one of the reasons I deleted Instagram). I'm fairly left wing; in fact my entire unit was pretty centrist. And it was aggravating having right wing propaganda pushed down my throat, solely because Facebook's crude advertising algorithms could not distinguish between a soldier who needed some webbing for a deployment, and a far-right militiaman who had delusions of protecting their constitutional rights.
