My understanding is that hate and violence in the last few decades have been steadily declining. At the same time, self-reported perception of those has been increasing since ~2014.
Maybe there's eluding racism we can all feel but cannot measure.
Or maybe a side effect of changes to social network recommendation algorithms is that we're now building echo chambers and polarizing people.
Today there's less hate, but more talk about it. And drastic measures aimed to decrease it have a high likelihood of changing the trend.
- eyelidlessness 4y agoThere has been a massive resurgence of hate groups and hate crimes in recent years. Some of it has barely been discussed at all.
