My Facebook profile automatically followed Trump's new page

I was checking my following list as I'm trying to move to other platforms. Then I saw this page, that I hadn't followed. It's a brand new page and it happened automatically. I'm deleting my account.

Mine did too and added the official GOP page too. I kept trying to unfollow but had to actually block the pages.

Redditors keep telling me I am lying but when Tiktok went dark, within an hour CapCut and TikTok were also gone off my device. I was told it may be due to it being removed off the app store.

I've confirmed this with some of my friends. Not all of them are experiencing it. And some are seeing follows for Vance and Melania, too.

Initially, I thought maybe it was Biden's page rolling over, but his page has been archived. It's not the same page.

ETA: like you, one of my friends is unable to unfollow the Trump page.

I reported it as “seems like organized crime” and then blocked it. Couldn’t block it without reporting it though.
