Hate Speech and social media: A Systematic Review (Turkish Online Journal of Qualitative Inquiry)

Global communication has been easier because to media technological advancements, which has led to a broad acceptance of new media platforms. Concern over hate speech online has also increased as a result of this rise, sparking interest from researchers. Using the SALSA framework (Search, Appraisal, Synthesis, and Analysis), the current systematic review analyzes 50 studies and divides hate speech on social media into four categories: general, religious, gendered, and racist hate. Results show that the rising incidence of hate speech and online harassment, particularly directed at gender and religion, is mostly caused by anonymity and a lack of control. To gain a deeper understanding of these dynamics, researchers stress the need of examining user behavior and shared material on social media sites. New directions for further study in this developing topic are also identified in the review.
