Ban this, ban that, Facebook as a moral guideline? A religion? Really? Do you need Facebook to tell you to breathe in and out? How about FB bans itself?

Good, that means they will ban any SNP content

Facebook must ban all kinds of extremism. separatism, is a political concept.

too late. realDonaldTrump jairbolsonaro were both elected. hope mark is happy to fuck up so many lives.

2)each of these founder,we can call geek,one of a kind,who else in your platform or the rest of the world ever have the same idea founding,or to create this platform FB.,none just u.,ur unique mind behind the success of this platform

Too late! the damage is done, modern democracies are fighting ISIS and WhiteSupremacy thanks to social media who helped form them.

Never mind praise and support.,that is unstoppable., banning?there's a lot of social media platforms and fake accounts, how about working on privacy, content/files or data? Means SECURITY..founders of any kind of platforms became billionaire bc of their genius mind,like yours

This, like all other Facebook claims incl efforts to stop the spread of fake news, is not true. It's a bunch of talk, no action.

So the Catalonians better watch what they put on Facebook?

That's Going To Be Challenging..

Not before time. Almost too late for democracy...

only BLACK nationalism is allowed?

But it applauds the fascist left.

Seems like a simple rule. Once you hate group has a massive body count, you should not be on Facebook anymore.

No problem with ISIS supporting accounts though..

finalmente

alots of new networks popping up everyday
