“Instagram Reality” is a subreddit community committed to exposing those who take face filters and airbrushing to the extreme. Many Instagram users edit their photos excessively, prompting this community to call them out on their unrealistic portrayals of themselves. Their mission is to reveal the truth behind these edited images.
