Why am I getting gore on my racism app?

Any time a video is known by its title instead of a description, it's better not to seek it out.
Now I'm intrigued.

What the hell is the tower of terror video?
For anyone not familiar (assuming you’re being serious here) the tower of terror is a ride based on a movie where you’re essentially in a simulated free-falling elevator. No seatbelts or safety inside the box but my understanding is that they are held to the same safety standards as other roller coasters. I legitimately can’t tell if this is about the ride or a real free falling elevator.

If Lemmy/Pixelfed/Masto can’t capitalize on this we fucked up.

Perhaps to desensitize the common person to the impending brutal violence that will be sweeping the united states.
On a related note, if you are a member of a marginalized group in the united states, you are behind the curve if you do not own, and are not basically proficient with, some form of self defense. This includes some kind of martial art, but a visible deterent is prefered.

What the hell is the tower of terror video?
It's described in the article, got to it from one of the other links on lemmy. It's the older tower of terror smaller carnival rides. The ones that are like 20-40 seats around a central pole and the seats alternate between going up and down the pole at as rapid a pace as that much weight can be cheaply moved.
The video in question is about someone falling off of it.

I like this but realistically what was supposed to be blocked from the algorithm got shown and pushed instead, prob a simple error

Better question:
Why is Instagram hosting horrific violence, animal abuse, murders, dead bodies, and other gore videos AT ALL?
They aren't rotten.com, so why host it? If you don't host it, then you don't need to worry about the feeds screwing up.
Do they do porn videos too? There's the next potential problem...
tbf if you go looking for it you can find it on any service because people post it everywhere for some reason. Its actually really suprising how I haven't come across any on lemmy (im sure its here somewhere ive just never seen it).
The real problem is algorithms picking up on negative interactions and showing it to more people based on that.

Disable your NSFW block setting and every 1/3 post is porn, or the dedicated instance http://lemmynsfw.com/ (warning NSFW if it wasn't obvious)
It's actually so active I wish there was a dedicated option for "porn NSFW" and "other NSFW" when making a post because since most people have the block setting on nobody will see it, even if it's just like a photo of art with blood in it or something mild

Instagram is so awful. I go to search and it’s filled with AI girls and cosplay/bikini/lingerie girls. I don’t follow any of those kinds of accounts.

No idea who that is, but I learned an important lesson from Uvalde. One of the values that a capitalist society attenpts to instill is a sense of rugged individualism. Even professional tough guys, when thinking death is on the line, will hesitate, as we saw. As a minority in america, when some iteration of the proud boys comes knocking to check your birth certificate, it is imperative that you get them thinking that there's a chance that they don't walk away. Get them thinking, "What about me?" and you chances of survival increase.

Yep. Just checked. I don’t use it hardly at all, but now it’s loaded with pro-trump, -musk, -doge, transphobe, etc. Just a crapload of right-wing bullshit.

There is a simple fix: delete your instagram account.

My mother doesn't use Instagram, but she's been getting videos on Facebook of people in shootouts/duels/armed robberies/etc, apparently from a brazilian (or at least Portuguese speaking) page, usually ending with someone dead.

The people who post that stuff want to psychologically damage people, especially young people. PTSD is real and has real effects.

It's because they are massive online attacks by govt orgs. That's why they have access to all that footage, especially war footage - it's theirs. That's why all those Russian torture videos exist - many are literally just officers and prison guards for Putin, and he releases them as a warning to spies and people abroad.
