Since 2017, @juliacarriew has been identifying hate groups on Facebook and asking the company why they haven& #39;t been removed.

She& #39;s now being attacked by the Daily Stormer and others for this reporting.

Here& #39;s a thread of how Facebook has responded: https://twitter.com/juliacarriew/status/1198059516912254976?s=20">https://twitter.com/juliacarr...
Some of the hate groups Facebook suddenly removed after Charlottesville were ones that @juliacarriew had flagged to Facebook, and that the company had deemed perfectly acceptable, just weeks before: https://www.theguardian.com/technology/2017/aug/16/mark-zuckerberg-facebook-charlottesville-response">https://www.theguardian.com/technolog...
Once again, Facebook removed a few hate groups when @juliacarriew identified them and flagged them.

Once again, they also chose not to take action against blatant white supremacists, including accounts linked to David Duke, the former Ku Klux Klan leader https://www.theguardian.com/world/2018/jul/25/charlottesville-white-supremacists-big-tech-failure-remove">https://www.theguardian.com/world/201...
In early 2019, after a white supremacist terror attack on mosques in New Zealand that, this time, claimed the lives of 50 people, Facebook finally updated its hate policy ban "white nationalism" & "white separatism."

Now, because of her years of reporting on Facebook& #39;s failure to enforce its own policies against hate, @juliacarriew is being personally attacked by a white nationalist group she wrote about, and by the Daily Stormer: https://twitter.com/juliacarriew/status/1198275930625462272">https://twitter.com/juliacarr...
As Facebook has been trying to push back against @SachaBaronCohen, claiming "Hate speech is actually banned on our platform," @juliacarriew, a journalist who& #39;s reported for years on hate speech on Facebook, is getting personally attacked with racist slurs: https://twitter.com/donie/status/1198019673578770432">https://twitter.com/donie/sta...
