Sarah Schwartz, director of the progressive Jewish Council of Australia, has argued that protest movements and migrant communities are being unfairly targetted, when facing the Royal Commission on Thursday.
CountryNews has covered the initial days of the the third block of public hearings for the Royal Commission into Antisemitism and Social Cohesion.
OHPI’s expertise has also been cited.
CountryNews writes: “Online Hate Prevention Institute’s Andre Oboler, who has researched hate speech for more than a decade, said social media platforms X and Reddit removed less than a quarter of posts flagged as being anti-Semitic.
Reddit deleted 17 per cent, while X was slightly better at 24 per cent.
YouTube, LinkedIn and Telegram all removed just over 40 per cent.
TikTok – which had less media flagged than other platforms – deleted about 62 per cent, while Facebook removed 54 per cent.“
