(JTA) – Following the lead of Twitter, Facebook and YouTube, the video platform TikTok announced that it is expanding the range of hate content that it will ban from the network. The move comes less than two weeks ahead of the American election and amid official warnings of potential violence by extremist groups during and after the vote. It also comes following complaints that TikTok users were demeaning the Holocaust by portraying themselves as concentration camp inmates in videos. TikTok said in a blog post Wednesday, Oct. 21 that it already bans Holocaust denial and works to remove neo-Nazi and white supremacist content. Now it will remove posts advocating similar ideologies like white nationalism, male supremacy and “white genocide theory,” which falsely claims that there is a conspiracy to eliminate white populations with a flood of immigrants.

The site also said it would ban “misinformation about notable Jewish individuals and families who are used as proxies to spread antisemitism.” It did not specify names, but figures such as George Soros and the Rothschild family are common avatars for antisemitism. The site also said it will ban anti-Muslim and anti-LGBTQ content.

In recent weeks, Facebook, Twitter and YouTube have all announced steps to ban Holocaust denial, hate groups and posts advocating QAnon, a growing conspiracy theory with antisemitic overtones. The measures come following campaigns by activists charging that the platforms were not doing enough to combat hate.
