Facebook 'hides' the right-wing newspaper National Primate. Di Stefano (CasaPound): "Censorship"

"The main page of the National Primacy with over 80 thousand I like it was hidden. This page is a "reserve" page where some of our articles are published ". A "reserve" because from 9am this morning Facebook has "hidden" the page of what is called "the only independent Italian sovranist newspaper". National primacy, monthly which also has an online edition, is published by Altaforte, the publishing house founded by Francesco Polacchi, coordinator of Casapound in Lombardy. It is investigated for apology of fascism and violation of Mancino law for having declared himself to be a fascist ("I am a fascist and Mussolini is a great Italian statesman," he said), and to consider anti-fascism "the evil of this country". Instead, the editor of the magazine is Adriano Scianca, national head of culture for Casapound Italy.

The news of the "disappearance" of the page was given precisely by the leader of the far-right movement Davide Di Stefano. "The censorship of Facebook strikes the National Primacy. This morning around 9am the social network of Mark Zuckerberg has informed us that our page has been "hidden". So for almost 90 thousand users who had clicked "I like it" it will no longer be possible to see updates, news and simple posts. A real censorship, which fits into the vein inaugurated on 9 September last, when Facebook had decided to censor all the pages of CasaPound, Forza Nuova and some members of Alloy is Brothers of Italy".

Of Stefano then specifies that "the page has not been completely deactivated but only" hidden ", a practice already used with several councilors of CasaPound"And that" darkening precedes deactivation ". According to what the leader of Casapound, the official reason given by Facebook "Is that the National Primacy violates our community Standards regarding spam ". The same reasoning that the social network had used – without providing further details – when 23 pages were obscured by the active citizenship site Avaaz.
