Abstract

Anti-Jewish racism has appeared online ever since the invention of the internet. It is present on chat forums, review sites, news web pages and across social media. The amplification of antisemitism has been an ongoing concern for those working to tackle racist hate. Inspite of this, platforms’ decisions about their systems have largely seen hate online spread, rather than stopped, and can lead one to question whether they are even able to keep up with the scale and pace of online hate.
