White Supremacist kicked off Facebook. Well occasionally Facebook gets something right.

Courtesy of Fast Forward:

Facebook is the latest platform to expel white supremacist Richard Spencer. The website has removed three pages that belonged to the white supremacist, the BBC reported. 

Spencer, who is known for popularizing the term “alt-right,” ran the Facebook page of his National Policy Institute think tank, another one promoting his AltRight.com news analysis website, and his personal page. 

At a time when Facebook is under scrutiny for privacy concerns, the social media website is taking action against hate speech. 

Spencer rose to prominence in 2016 when he was filmed celebrating President Trump’s election win by cheering: “Hail Trump, hail our people, hail victory,” to an audience who responded with Nazi-like salutes. 

I am all for free speech and all.

But there are some people whose free speech is all about taking freedoms away from other people, and I am less than sympathetic when those individuals lost their rights.

    2. You mean in between Trump bragging about his inauguration crowds, how he won the popular vote, how big his hands are and complaining about the witch hunt?

      I'm sure all of our world leaders and their representatives know the drill and are familiar with Trump's tantrums and repetitive brags. It's how they've learned to manipulate him.

      I'm sure lavish gifts that will NOT be declared or surrendered will be involved.

    No one stopped him from his hate/free speech at all. It's just private companies do not have to give him a platform for his hate speech.

    '$lippery James Comey, the worst FBI Director in history, was not fired because of the phony Ru$$ia investigation where, by the way, there was NO COLLUSION (except by the Dems)!'

    In {Theresa Mary} May>tinydjt>"“And in fact when I decided to just do it, I said to my$elf, I said ‘you kNOW, this Ru$$ia thing with Trump and Ru$$ia is a made-up story, it’s an excuse by the Democrats for having lost an election that they should have won’.”
    “My decision….I was going to fire Comey. There’s no good time to do it by the way….I was going to fire regardless of recommendation.”"

    'You may be able to calm your anxiety — and actually do better — by simply talking to yourself in the third person, a new study suggests. Researchers found that people create distance between themselves and whatever is causing negative emotions, like fear or anxiety, when they $elf-talk in the third person.'

    OT"WASHINGTON (Reuters) – U.S. Senator Robert Menendez, the top Democrat on the Foreign Relations Committee, said on Wednesday he would oppose President Donald Trump’s nomination of CIA Director Mike Pompeo to be secretary of state, in a blow to the nomination." “I believe our nation’s top diplomat must be forthright, and more critically his past sentiments did not reflect our nation’s values and are not acceptable for our nation’s top diplomat,” Menendez said at the Center for Strategic and International Studies.

    “Which is why … I’ll be casting a ‘NO’ vote for Director Pompeo to be our secretary of state,” "
