These Hungarian bands and organisations are on Facebook’s list of banned entities

Change language:

According to the snapshots of the current version of Facebook’s internal list of Dangerous Individuals and Organizations (DIO), over 4,000 individuals and organisations fall into the categories of “hate”, “crime”, “terrorism”, “militarised social movements”, and “violent non-state actors”. The list includes 26 Hungarian bands, organisations, the Kuruc.info website and the Nyilaskeresztes Párt (Arrow Cross Party).

The DIO list constitutes the foundation of Facebook’s Dangerous Individuals and Organizations policy. According to The Intercept, the names on this list align with individuals and organisations officially considered dangerous by the U.S. government. This blacklist is a collection of groups and individuals who can be associated with hate, crime, terrorism, militarised social movements or are violent non-state actors.

Tier system

The categories mentioned above are organised into a three-tier system, with each tier corresponding to speech restrictions of varying severity. The tiers determine what other Facebook users are allowed to say about the banned entities, but

regardless of their tier, no one on the DIO list is allowed to maintain a presence on Facebook.

Tier 1 is the most strictly limited, including alleged terror, hate, and criminal groups and individuals allegedly associated with such groups who have caused “serious offline harm”. In this context, terror is defined as “organising or advocating for violence against civilians” and hate as “repeatedly dehumanising or advocating for harm against” people with protected characteristics, explains The Intercept.

The majority of Tier 1 consists of hate groups, American and Latin American gangs and drug cartels.

Any post expressing anything deemed to praise or support these groups and individuals is removed from the social media platform.

  1. This is news? Who cares what that garbage spewing website Facebook decrees as hate speech. Everything is hate speech to them that opposes their leftist globalist views. ANYONE that uses Facebook or any social media platform that censor speech in 2021 is a moron. If freedom to have a different opinion makes one a purveyor of hate speech then more than half the people on the planet are guilty of hate speech. I am not talking about making threats to harm another person or group, I am talking about having ANY viewpoint or opinion that the leftist globalist disagree with.

  2. Don’t feel bad , they banned the president of the US with zuckerbucks and others who along with others spent over a billion dollars to defeat him. They have decided will what they determine is hate speech. They have decided there was no election fraud and anyone who thinks other, will be silenced.
    Facebook has more europe flowers than the US, with major business and organizations use it as their home page.

  3. No one needs Face Book. Zuckerbad is exercising power that was not given to him. There is linked In for business people and E-mail for communications and pictures. No Sovereign country should cede it sovereignty to Zuckerbad.

    Then there is the telephone, how refreshing is to hear some dear friends voice.
