Facebook to ban white nationalist content

Which banned party (on Facebook) are you talking about? You said, '... yet I see no ban on the only party that...'. Which banned party are you comparing it to?

The CCP obviously (Chinese Communist Party, aka CPC), which he already mentioned.

Not sure if CCP has a FB page, but that far is obvious.

Is it though? I can't find anything that explicitly says that Facebook has banned the CCP. Could you provide any sources which say this? Also, the post I was replying to said:

> The CCP is running concentration camps for hundreds of thousands of Muslims right now, yet I see no ban on the only party that can be called National Socialist today, just because the nation they are supporting is yellow.

I don't see any way to infer this as saying that Facebook has banned the CCP–what am I missing here?

Also, if Facebook has indeed banned the CCP, well, turnabout is just fair play–after all, the CCP has banned Facebook from China.

This discussion is about FB and, more broadly, speech on private platforms. Not the Chinese Communist Party or any governments.
