Facebook and Instagram's parent company Meta allows users to call for violence against governments, leaders and militaries of both Russia and Belarus
Global tech giant Meta bends its rules regarding violent speech on its platforms, allowing statements like"death to Russian invaders" in reaction to Moscow's assault on Ukraine.
"As a result of the Russian invasion of Ukraine, we have temporarily made allowances for forms of political expression that would normally violate our rules like violent speech such as 'death to the Russian invaders.' We still won't allow credible calls for violence against Russian civilians," a Meta spokesperson said in a statement on Thursday.
The emails said calls for violence against Russians are allowed when the post is clearly talking about the attack on Ukraine. Last week, Russia said it was banning Facebook in the country in response to what it said were restrictions of access to Russian media on the platform.
