The white nationalist movement grew by 600% on Twitter in the last 4 years, outpacing ISIS

It’s now official: There are more white nationalists and neo-Nazis on Twitter than members and advocates of ISIS. A new report, published on Thursday, revealed that the follower growth of “major white nationalist movement and organization accounts” grew by 600% from 3,542 in 2012 to 25,406 followers in 2016. The study also found white nationalists surpassing ISIS in metrics from tweets per day to follower growth. But how Twitter responds to these 2 groups is most troubling.
