Summary:

This book by Luiz Valério P. Trindade provides a critical analysis of hate speech and abusive behavior on social media platforms. It examines the societal impacts of such discourse on individuals, vulnerable social groups, and democratic systems. Trindade explores various forms of hate speech, including racist, misogynistic, and politically motivated rhetoric, and discusses how social media has become an echo chamber for harmful sentiments. The book highlights the role of algorithms, data exploitation, and the quest for online approval in cultivating an antisocial digital environment. Trindade also expands the discussion beyond Anglophone contexts by analyzing research published in Portuguese, Spanish, and Italian. This work is intended for scholars in social media studies, digital humanities, and sociology, as well as policymakers and social activists concerned with the effects of online hate speech.
