Earlier this month, Facebook released the guidelines it says it uses to review content internally. The process appeared to be rather granular, but the rules that the legions of moderators the company hires are far more detailed, documents leaked to Vice’s Motherboard show.

Most notably, the documents refer specifically to white power-related hate speech, which the company was trying to zero in on following the white supremacist march in Charlottesville, Virginia, last year, during which one person was killed and many more injured. The guidelines include some puzzling decisions.
