I stand corrected as this post is a hooey because nothing is factual in this. They write whatever they want and say due to sources. This is BS. If u can't receal the source that means entire this is bizzare. I'm not sure WHY WSJ allow such incompetents to write for them?

This is a preposterous post. Few knuckleheads who think themselves as politicians in India, get trolled due to their stupidity. They get the blitzkrieg because they are simpleton and get slamed by common public. Same public repudiate them and proved that in elections too.

After knowing that democracy in India is in danger nowadays and hatred is spreading so fast among people and communities ... Facebook should step aside their personal gains with the Indian government and be a responsible social media platform! .

Was not your journalist expelled because they were spreading fake communal news?

WSJ taking revenge on the police complaint against WSJ Journalist for spreading fake news.

☑️🤔👉BJP & RSS control Facebook & Whatsapp in India. ☑️🤔👉They spread fake news and hatred through it and use it to influence the electorate. ☑️🤔👉Finally, the American media has come out with the truth about Facebook.

☑️🤔👉FB - JIO - BJP have formed an MAHAGATBANDHAN in India. ✅Zuckerberg owns a huge stake in Jio and is lenient on BJP. ✅Ambani controls Modi & BJP by funding them. ✅BJP uses Facebook and Whatsapp to spread fake news and win Elections.

Business is a business... Now whether it is to spread religious hatred, riots or set the background of genocide ....?

Facebook just like Twitter allows all the so called hate speech directed towards white people Christians and Americans but doesn't do anything about it

Facebook you need to check out this issue raised. Necessary action is expected.

Quite rich..coming from publication which falsely reported statements from Delhi riot victim to implicate hindus to run its propaganda. WSJ should be banned, its a blot on journalism.

secondatticus is the Managing Director of Facebook India. It's time to ask why facebook India loves hatespeech & allows it to spread on its platform. mmfa StopFundingHate Hatewatch hopenothate AskAjitMohan

icashmir Ban Facebook.

Wall Street Journal was the one spreading fake news. It was caught during Delhi riots, to implicate 'non-existent Hindu supremacists'.

The actions of those that feed sectarianism and divisions in🇮🇳India and the🌎are the source of aggressive language and speech in the society and in social media platforms.

I would love for all the insults to disappear. but what's happening is they're using it as a way to remove critical responses. also reporting is not telling me what to think. it's giving me the facts & letting me draw my own conclusion strengtheningthebubble upwithminiskirts

shameful

Why are you posting Modi's pic when he is not the offender? This is why we don't trust WSJ.

Whether Western media like Modi or no. Truth is Modi is the biggest democratic leader in the world.

Both Jew Mark Zuckerberg and Hindu NarendraModi are responsible, rest are innocent as Osama bin Laden newley . White journalists are Hinduphobic lunatics roaming with there pen power JeffBezos amazon

Literally thousands of facebook pages exist that thrive on hinduphobia! But no, , had to dig up the outliers, make an article on them, link it with BJP and prove yet again its Hinduphobia, Modiphobia and Indiaphobia. Guess what? No Indian cares for and its lies!!!

but BLM and Trump hate speech is approved

Great way to increase Twitter followers!

This is such a hit peace!! Taking over the top example! Every kind of speech is covered under the free speech umbrella! Let ppl decide what is hate speech!! So they will know who is hate monger! Ilhan omar did blatant antisemitc speech but she’s still active here ! Bias ?

Why wont you report the hate speech against Hindus, that lead to all this? Or are you Anti-Hindu?
