"Digital violence"

Dafuq even is "digital violence"? I know cyberbullying is a thing, but now it feels like people are just making up shit to be angry about.

I suppose they have no opinion on "digital violence" such as being slandered in the Tea App or AWDTSG online groups or suchlike.

I remember when Zoe Quinn and Anita Sarsleazian went to the UN (of all places) to demand an end to "cyber violence"... All the weeping and gnashing of teeth around internet trolling always just seemed like pure childishness and egotism compared to the general reaction to the trolling that happens on the roadway when idiots behind the wheel make a game of life and death. The latter trolling can kill, maim, destroy property, destroy lives. The former has the power to- OH NO!- hurt someone's feelings! So naturally the former is the one that feminists got the UN to make an issue of. Silence on the latter.

UN Women is one of those organizations that, even if they have data on violence against men, will hide & ignore it. Digital violence should include misandry, which is common across social media. Many platforms' policies specifically label women as a vulnerable group, which simply allows them to express hateful views without consequence.

I think UN Women had an opportunity here to take a balanced stance & avoid alienating even more men, but I guess they chose not to.

Online harassment is a thing but violence in what way? I know the UN doesn't have an equivalent for boys but you can't expect UN Women to include boys so I doubt it counts as misandry

"Digital violence" lmfao. Mean words online = violence. This is beyond idiotic....

The solution to "digital violence" is to go outside and touch some grass xD

Has digital violence something to do with silence is violence as it’s anything but vocal?
