Facebook's hate speech policy

The New York Times has an interesting interactive article about Facebook's hate speech policy.

You should probably go there and take the quiz before reading the spoiler entry below, which comments on the article.

I got 6 out of 6 correct just by applying the policy as it was defined in article. I think Facebook's application of their own policy is good. The most difficult one was the Muslim Immigrants one, since immigrant status is kinda similar to national origin, but I decided not close enough (as did FB).

What the article didn't make clear is that if one thinks some of these ought to be classified as hate speech, then one has to complain about FB's policy and not its implementation.

(For what it's worth, since asked, I said none of them were hate speech, but only because I'm not sure what hate speech is and tend to interpret it in a very narrow sense. To say they aren't hate speech isn't to say they aren't terribly offensive and worthy of censorship.)
