My Instagram feed has gotten more left since Trump took office again, but I have also started following more political and activist accounts. I noticed as I was leaving Facebook the less I interacted with things the more insane posts the algorithm would show me. It could be if Meta doesn't know what you want to see it just shows you the worst hoping you engage somehow.
That's a good guess. I reported a few bigots and now my feed is mostly normal, which is much better.
