Neo-Nazi groups allowed to stay on Facebook because they ‘do not violate community standards’
Exclusive: International white supremacist groups remain online, spreading same conspiracy theory that inspired New Zealand attack
WTF.

I'm pretty sure that in Israel, Nazi like, ultra zionist, Jewish supremacist groups exist happily on social media without violating community standards.

Charlottesville murderer pleads guilty. He'll be a guest of the feds for a while, but I'm sure he'll find plenty of like-minded creeps to welcome him.

'Fields pleads guilty to 29 hate crimes in Charlottesville rally attack'
The Ohio man who drove his car into a crowd full of protesters during a Charlottesville, Va., Unite the Right rally, killing Heather Heyer and inuring dozens of others, pleaded guilty to 29 federal hate crimes Wednesday.

James Alex Fields, Jr., 21, pleaded guilty to one count of a hate crime act that resulted in Heyer's death and 28 counts of hate crime acts that caused bodily injury and involved an attempt to kill, the Department of Justice said.

Each of the 29 counts carries a maximum sentence of life imprisonment and a fine of up to $250,000.

Fields said he drove into the crowd of counterprotesters because of "the actual and perceived race, color, national origin and religion of its members," according to court documents.

He also said his actions killed Heyer and that he intended to kill other people he struck with his car.

The abominable and capricious oppression of free speech for white supremacists continues apace on Facebook. Won't somebody think of the rights of bigots and the rights of inquiring minds who wish to listen to their pernicious drivel?

'Facebook bans Faith Goldy and "dangerous" alt-right groups'
Facebook is banning far-right political commentator Faith Goldy, white nationalist crusader Kevin Goudreau and various extremist groups, the social media company said Monday.

The company said it has long-standing policies on extremist content and organized hate groups and is barring the individuals and organizations under its "dangerous individuals and organizations" community standards policy.

Goldy's views have been described as far-right white nationalist. She was fired from Rebel Media in 2017 after taking part in a neo-Nazi podcast.

"Individuals and organizations who spread hate, attack, or call for the exclusion of others on the basis of who they are have no place on Facebook. That's why we have a policy on dangerous individuals and organizations, which states that we do not allow those who are engaged in offline 'organized hate' to have a presence on Facebook," reads a statement from Facebook.

"The individuals and organizations we have banned today violate this policy, and they will no longer be allowed a presence on our services. Our work against organized hate is ongoing and we will continue to review individuals, pages, groups and content against our community standards."

Does LA still have the death penalty? in the good old times arsonists used to be burned at the stake.

A gated community of ~5 mil people that also happens to be one of the world's leading oil exporters.

As the Dutch say, Jesus fucking christ on a pogo stick.

Norway is no more gated than the USA. It is also a capitalist country with strong welfare policies, and unlike the UK, which used its share of the North Sea oil revenues to cut income tax rates for the rich, then sold it to the private sector, Norway managed its share wisely. Most of its oil revenue has not even been spent yet. It's funding Norway's pension program. As of January 2014 there are £100,000 salted away for every man, woman and child. In my book it's a good idea to save the windfall for rainy days/old age rather than frittering it away.

Yeah right. Managing Norway is not much different than managing the US, and being a leading exporter of oil and gas doesn't make any welfare system more feasible.
