Facebook Employees Wanted to Censor ‘Hate Speech’ from Trump, ‘Threatened to Quit’, by Ben Kew.

Facebook employees rallied the company’s CEO Mark Zuckerberg and even threatened to quit the company over some of Donald Trump’s postings, which they claimed violated the site’s policy on hate speech and community rules, a report from The Wall Street Journal has revealed.

The posts in question related to Donald Trump’s comments about a proposed ban on Muslim immigration to the U.S., which they said violated the site’s community standards, arguing the company had double standards in relation to Trump.

They threaten political speech, by labeling it “hate speech.”
