Facebook bans white nationalist groups after criticism

 

Facebook on Monday banned a batch of Canadian white nationalist groups from its platform after facing criticism for declining to remove a post by white nationalist commentator Faith Goldy.

 

HuffPost last week reported that Facebook declined to take down a video in which Goldy accused people of color and Jews of "replacing" white populations in Europe, the United States and Canada. The tech giant at the time said Goldy's rhetoric did not violate Facebook's new policies against white nationalist and white separatist content.

 

In a statement on Monday, a Facebook spokesperson said the company has removed Goldy and other prominent white nationalist groups and individuals from Facebook and Instagram.
