He reminded him of the ban Facebook put against the content shared regarding the Holocaust and stated that he wants Mark to ban Islamophobia content from his platform in the same way.

Given the rampant abuse and vilification of Muslims on social media platforms, I would ask you to place a similar ban on Islamophobia and hate against Islam for Facebook that you have put in place for the Holocaust.
