Last Thursday, we reported that the African-American Defense League, a black nationalist group founded by Mauricelm-Lei Millere, posted a call on Facebook to kill what it describes as “Confederates, KKK, skin heads” and “all of … President Trump’s friends” along with their families.
At that time, we reported the post to Facebook but were unable to flag it as violent. The social media site finally responded after some five days, telling us the post does not violate “one of” their community standards:
Thanks for letting us know about this. We looked over the post, and though it doesn’t go against one of our specific Community Standards, you did the right thing by letting us know about it. We understand that it may still be offensive or distasteful to you, so we want to help you see less of things like it in the future.
Facebook went on to advise us
