Facebook Blacklist revealed: here is the complete list of groups and individuals blocked by the social network

The intercept site leaks Facebook's secret list of "dangerous individuals and organizations" and it's a very long list, with 4,000 entries and over 100 pages ! These include US-sanctioned entities such as terrorists, historical criminals, cartels, militia groups and mere dissidents.
The Intercept, which noted that "almost everyone and everything on the list is considered an enemy or a threat by America or its allies" and more than half are alleged foreign terrorists, but there are also several Italian names on the list and some we will show you

The Intercept highlights how it is ultimately "an irresponsible system that disproportionately punishes some communities", with suspected "Middle Eastern, South Asian and Muslim" terrorists and alleged violent criminals "mainly black and Latino. ". at the same time there are specific prohibitions that affect countless white militias and even Italian personalities.

Nearly 1,000 entries in the terrorism-related portion of the list come from the Specially Designated Global Terrorists (SDGT), a sanctions list maintained by the US Treasury Department. Islamic State (IS, formerly ISIS) and Al-Qaeda affiliates are listed right next to Hamas and Hezbollah, the Taliban, Yemen's Houthi militants – as well as entities linked to the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) of the 'Iran as the "Iran Tractor Manufacturing Company."

Also on the list are the communist parties of India and the Philippines, as well as the Kurdistan Workers' Party (PKK), designated by Turkey as a terrorist organization, but not by the United States.

Anti-Communism Militia, Counter-Terrorism Militia, Anti-Trump Militia, and Wisconsin Anti-Anti-Faith Militia Organization are listed next to each other, and this is only in section "A".

The category of hateful individuals includes historical villains such as Nazi dictator Adolf Hitler and his Italian ally Benito Mussolini, but also Elliot Rodger, Proud Boys founder Gavin McInnes (listed as "McGinnes"), Azov battalion commander Andriy Biletsky , British activist Tommy Robinson and US Internet commentator Nickholas Fuentes, among others.

The publication of the Facebook blacklist comes as Mark Zuckerberg's social media platform finds itself in the crosshairs of a campaign of pressure from corporate media and politicians in the United States, claiming it has not done enough to "protect democracy" . Former employee Frances Haugen received red carpet treatment in the US Senate last week as a "whistleblower" about Facebook's alleged misdeeds.
