As my Twitter account [clampdownonhate] starts to gain a bigger following, and is getting noticed more, I have decided to create a forum, a tumblr blog, and now a website for the Twitter account. The purpose of this website is to highlight news around the world relating to hate speech, hate crimes and anything to do with feminism and anti fascism as well as news on politics. The purpose of this site is also to challenge bigotry in all forms, from homophobia to anti semitism, to misogyny to Islamophobia.
This site will be associated with my Twitter account clampdownonhate, as well as the sister account failedguideline. This site will expose some of the worst bigots and trolls on the internet, as well as share news from verified sites. This website will be linked with two Twitter accounts, both are mentioned and highlighted above. Any news regarding either of the mentioned accounts will be posted here as well. I intend to gain a bigger following, and spread awareness of the impacts on hate speech as well as the fact that social media removes the wrong content, while allowing bad actors and hateful and abusive content to remain up - look at Facebook, for instance, who removes posts with the phrase "men are trash", and Instagram, who deletes sex workers' accounts, while both allow Nazis to remain on their platform, as well as posts and accounts who deliberately manipulate their audiences by spreading misinformation. Facebook and Twitter also need to be called out for their failure in removing content that repeatedly targets Meghan Markle, the Duchess of Sussex and causing friction within the Royal Family. Enough said. Hate speech is not okay. And that's why this website will be here to stay - educate and spread awareness.
