Internet platforms crack down on right-wing extremists and their 'Boogaloo' cult

It’s been a rough week for right-wing extremists on the Internet. On YouTube, neo-Nazi patriarch David Duke and white-nationalist gadflies Richard Spencer and Stefan Molyneux got the boot, along with video channels for racist organizations such as American Renaissance. Reddit finally got around to banning a number of subreddits where racism and misogyny had flourished, including the notorious r/The_Donald subreddit. (Twitch actually suspended Donald Trump himself.) Meanwhile, Facebook—after dragging its feet while the real-life threats mounted—banned hundreds of pages related to the so-called “Boogaloo” shared violent fantasy about a civil war that’s become immensely popular on the far right.
