I think it’s bullshit. They allow groups to exist that threaten the life of someone who dared to film a cop planting something on a dead man. They don’t actually care about this shit and I bet that raging white supremacists will still be able to get their videos out.

  So what you are saying is that you think this is targeted at a specific group that’s responsible for an uptick of terrorist attacks? And which group of people do you think that is?

  You’d lose that bet. European authorities are not just concerned about Islamist fundamentalism but had some serious talks with Facebook about spreading incitement to racial hatred. Under German law, someone offering a platform for Nazi propaganda can be held just as liable for the distribution of it as the one writing it.

Can we please add the following terms to the filter list, too? You know... as a system test or something? Yeah, that’s it.
- “and the answer will surprise you”
- “one weird trick”
- “left me speechless”
- “[$NUMBER] shocked me”
- “you’ll never believe what happened next”

Gee, wonder what kind of “extremist” videos they could be talking about? Has to be radical Bhuddists out there stirring things up. Could be the Amish too I suppose or even radical Seventh Day Adventists. Probably shouldn’t discount those Rastafarians either as just the other day I saw a Youtube video of a bunch of them performing mass executions in the name of Bob Marley.

  Just to point out, these sites are used in more places than the US and Europe, and those places do actually have problems with other groups. Buddhist extremism is a problem in some countries.

  I’m guessing you’re a troll but I hope you’re aware that radical Buddhism is a thing.

How do we define what “extremist” content is and who gets to decide? Facebook? YouTube? Twitter? Republitards? Dumbocrats? You know the Republitards will always blame the Dumbocrats and the Dumbocrats will always blame the Republitards for being extremist. The majority will always blame the minority. If somebody doesn’t agree with your opinions does that make them an “extremist”?

Besides, aren’t they just shooting themselves in the foot? If someone posts extremist content then great! Now we know who the extremists are and who to keep an eye on. Makes our job a lot easier. If they block this content it won’t be as easy to figure out. Knowledge is power.

  The sites get to decide arbitrarily because it’s their site and their terms of service.
  
  So, whatever their higher ups decide is an extremist movement, mixed with whoever gives incentives for them to declare groups extremist.

  This. I’m tired of conflating this shit as if a government was doing it. Yes, it’s a private site and they make their own rules. Yes, they get to decide what they define as “extreme.”

I would think they wanted people dumb enough to post extremist videos on fb. It becomes much easier to track who is a potential risk. Now they’ve driven them to the dark internet, where it’s not impossible to find them, but significantly more difficult than their posting something on your own site. I wouldn’t take it down. I’d just bury it so it doesn’t show up on anybody’s feed, and people genuinely don’t end up seeing it.

  I’m pretty sure the dummies that get extreme from watching YouTube aren’t even aware of the dark net. They can’t even spell. This is for the superficial recruits. If someone is going that deep to get into some shit, they’re leaps and bounds beyond little pricks like Omar Mateen and Dylan Roof.

I hope this means the next time I report a Daesh ideologue in Deir Ezzor boasting of the impending slaughter of hundreds of tribesmen there that Facebook will zap his account rather than send me this:

Free speech advocates have always lectured to me that the solution to speech you don’t agree with is more speech debunking those points. Rather than ban speech (and hence make more people interested in it), why not point out the mistakes and flaws in extremist arguments. You see Christian and Muslim leaders doing this against right-wingers. Banning speech in this automated and ham-handed way seems like a recipe for disaster.

So, like how many “slippery slop!/Big Brother!” hot-takes will this news produce, here? That’s the point of this, right?
