Recent surveys reveal that nearly half of Canadians have witnessed or experienced racist comments online, with marginalized communities being the hardest hit. Racialized Canadians are twice as likely to face online racism and violence. Higher exposure rates are reported among recent immigrants, 2SLGBTQ+ Canadians, and those with disabilities. The motivations behind online hate range from thrill-seeking to extremist ideologies, and its impact includes psychological distress, physical health issues, and social withdrawal.
To combat online hate, victims are encouraged to document and report incidents, block and mute perpetrators, seek support, and practice online safety. Bystanders can help by distracting the situation, delegating to authorities, and safely intervening. Together, we can make the internet a safer place for all.
