A comment on Facebook to ban white nationalist content.

Curious that a post about eliminating white nationalist content actually includes an image with white nationalist content.

It's perhaps an unintentional example of the difference between advocacy (banned) and education or discussion (not banned).

Very interested in how Facebook will distinguish between them when both use identical words.

Did you read the sentence right below that conveniently cropped screenshot?

| Searches for terms associated with white supremacy will surface a link to Life After Hate’s Page, where people can find support in the form of education, interventions, academic research and outreach.
