Facebook and tech giants to target attacker manifestos, far-right militias in database

3. I'm halfway through a 30-day FB jail sentence

for referring to Trump supporters generally as "a deranged cult of ignorant racist fuckheads who worship a deranged and ignorant racist fuckhead." Didn't single anyone out, simply made a demonstrably true observation.

Meanwhile, Trump cultists routinely tell me to to go fuck myself, or they call me a "fucking r#t#rd" or, in once case, made an actual (but not greatly credible) threat of real, physical harm. All of those were judged to be consistent with community standards.

So I'm amazed that this platform (which, contrary to the inevitable scolding I can not simply abandon), is taking any steps at all to rein in Rightwing extremists, since they ordinarily appear to have free rein on social media with little or no accountability.
