Facebook has banned the Facebook and Instagram accounts of a white nationalist who attended the rally in Charlottesville, Virginia, that ended in deadly violence.

Facebook spokeswoman Ruchika Budhraja tells The Associated Press that the profile pages of Christopher Cantwell have been removed as well as a page connected to his podcast. Cantwell was featured in a Vice News documentary about the rally and its aftermath.

Facebook has also removed at least eight pages connected to the white nationalist movement over what Budhraja says were violations on the company's polices on hate speech and organizations.

Cantwell was listed on online fliers promoting the rally. The Keene, New Hampshire, man has been labeled an extremist by the Southern Poverty Law Center.

Cantwell didn't immediately respond to a request for comment.

Facebook censors alternative viewpoints.
Zuckerberg is obviously trying to bring the "clash of civilizations" closer as suppression of viewpoints only strengthen people's beliefs.
It's aligned with CIA Operation Gladio B where CIA/ MOSSAD agents dress up as muslims to commit acts of terror or fund radical islamist groups to commit acts of terror to shape public opinion against muslims to strengthen public opinion which will agree with the U.S invading muslim countries for the "Greater Israel" project.
CIA Operation Gladio C is where CIA agents dress up as white nationalists or fund radical white supremacist groups to commit acts of terror or commit acts of blatant racism to shape public opinion against nationalists who have been gaining influence in Europe,most of whom want their country to leave the totalitarian technocratic (Bilderberg Owned)European Union.
To the current establishment/Deep State, the greatest threat to the status quo are the normal muslims,nationalists and communists.
The Syrian Army and Hezbollah are comprised of moderate muslims fighting against ISIS and fighting against every CIA backed Radical Islamist group hence the demonization of muslims in the West allows Western governments to go to war against muslims who are fighting against Radical Islamists.
