They forgot Reddit. Reddit is full of open racism all the time.
Yeah also 4chan
4chan is a flaming trash heap
Back in the 2000’s, 4chan was viewed almost as bad as Kiwifarms today.
The worst place I’ve seen racism is the YouTube comment section of police bodycam videos. I swear the >50% of the videos will be of white people but whenever it isn’t the comments are filled with racist stuff.
Infact I went to a bodycam YouTube channel and clicked on the first one from an African American male and picked out some comments sorting by newest. Here are some examples:
“always the same breed” (11hr ago)
“Pew Pew. just saying.”(13hr ago)
"Bet they got an OR bond cause of “racism” "(51 minutes ago)This video is 2 months old.
And this comedy:
"Your Sargent don’t want you arresting [censored n-word]Because the crime stats shows how they ruin and destroy your country USA [fist emoji] [American flag emoji]
Government don’t want Americans to realise how immigrants come to America [American flag emoji] to commit crime"
which… isn’t even true, Immigrants have been about equal or even lower with the White US-Born population
Anyways, what I find the most disturbing about the YouTube comments is that it’s so surface level compared to something like 4chan or other obscure forums. they’re shouting their racism to everyone who will listen
I guess the people polled don’t play multiplayer video games if “other” is only 6%.
WhatsApp? Isn’t that just like, a messenger? Would think you’d want better friends if you’re encountering hate speech in your group chats haha
….so?
Spoken like a true non-minority
More like who doesn’t lol
I’m firmly in the “not very often” camp, and I think it’s because I don’t use any of the services mentioned, and I generally avoid the comment sections of most websites.
If you’re seeing a lot of hate speech, maybe consider not visiting sites where you see hate speech? Ideally we’d solve the root problem, but I’m worried a lot of people are just feeding the trolls, which creates a positive hate speech feedback loop.
18% in X? Hahahaha
I feel like the only people left on X are the people who don’t think their hate speech is hate speech…
The bar chart might be more useful if they weighted the source with its number of users. Facebook isn’t 7 times more hateful than Telegram. It has around 3.5 times as many users - but also the two are used very differently. I use Telegram, but only as a free messaging platform for automated alerts.
Then there’s the algorithms, which tend to feed you what you engage with and from those connections you’ve made on it. The exception recently is X which has a very strong political bias and has turned into something that pushes hate very strongly.
This is the same problem often encountered when reporting crime statistics. New York City, which has almost 9,000,000 residents, has a lot of reported crimes. However, when measured against the number of people who live there, it is, statistically, one of the safest cities in the country.
As usual, a statistic is made much more useful when looking at as per capita.
I’m glad that I learned basic statistical analysis in high school. Most people never get any education in statistics whatsoever. It’s responsible for a massive amount of misinformation and misunderstandings.
Racial slurs and epithets seem to be fine, talk about killing rich people though and you get banned real fast.
The regime knows what can happen ever since the french and soviet revolutions.
So regime whores will censor the sentiment.
You can always check who rules with this one simp trick!
Looks like lemmy.ml voters didn’t like that remark. Poor tankies, truth hurts them more than most.
Yea 🐸
Even on Lemmy.
Yeah this had been my observation too
33% seems high for “people who are apparently barely ever online”
Don’t know how the question was phrased, but remember, many people find a comment that disagrees with them or presents a fact they don’t like to be “hate”.
Great list of websites to never visit 👍
I get enough hate-speech during on-line video games. By not using any of those apps, I successfully save myself from multitudes more, while also foregoing any potentially addictive status-seeking site-based-compulsions. I used to play Clash of Clans on my phone because it was a good way to waste a couple minutes while taking a shit. I quit when I began to play too much. I feel like Facebook, twitter, instagram, they’re all just sites to waste time on. Which begs the question, why waste time on them at all? Why waste time?
I know not every moment can be spent fruitfully, but when something you do to waste a bit of time in between/during mundane tasks becomes something that now demands attention outside of that, then it’s time to stop wasting time on it.
Huh, I use zero of those websites, and haven’t for something like 15 years. And as it turns out, I see very little hate speech. I wonder if those two things are related…
And the other third is committing or just unaware of it. I encounter it several times a week and virtually no platform cares about most of it. Although I’m pleasantly surprised to almost never see it in my communities on Lemmy.
can relate, i am the hate speech
I don’t use the internet

Stay off the internet, while we deliver.
Or another way of putting it, 1 in 3 people don’t recognize hate speech online.
or 1 in 3 aren’t on Xitter
😋
I experience hate speech any time i see teevee…
They hate working people and yet, nobody cover this hate speech 🤡
