Culture of Harassment
amarashar's bookmarks 2016-11-22
Summary:
Harassment and hate erode our social contract. The language people use and the threats they make can be tools of power used against others. As we grapple to make sense of our contemporary political landscape, we cannot accept hate, intolerance, and harassment as status quo. Like Twitter and Facebook, we will always be playing whack-a-mole, but we owe it to ourselves and our country to stand up to harassment as bystanders, citizens, and technology makers.
