How Can Nairaland And News Agency Help Curtail Hatespeech by uyams(m): 8:35pm On Mar 01, 2019
sequel to the Just concluded presidential election, there has been increase in hate speech and this is causing serious division in the country and the south-east taking all the blame but the real truth is that the hate speech's is done by all Nigerians which includes yoroubas,ibibios,hausas,fulanis,etc.
This hate speech are sometimes made on Facebook by individuals
1)just to gather likes
2)start an argument
3)trend online
4)some to sound hilarious or funny but with no intention of really hurting anyone physically.
5)Groups to instigate fear
6)Some blogs exergerating simple sentences to generate traffic.
Please in what way can nairaland and other news platform and blogs help to curtail the spread of this hate speech's and videos so it can die naturally in our country E.g A video was moved to front page showing some people in the car refusing to help a northern begger on the frontpage, and a News about Miyetti Allah threatening Igbo's with Fulani heardsmen, should the mods give a fool such opportunity to grace to frontpage
?
Can names be omitted when crimes are committed for sometime to avoid ethnic bashing?



pls let's hear ur mind......
Nigeria is our only country

They're not interested in curtailing hate speech. They rather want to amplify it to maximum.

Especially Nairaland.

sad




You useless nincompoop,


what bloody hate speech are you talking? And how is Nigeria a concocted contraption ''our only country''?


God forbid I join the 'range rover' of ignorance just to sound right! I'd always say it as it is not as it should be said, I don't care if it's ''hate speech"; whether it's makes you jerks off or pissed off!

Am telling u, the rate the move post that can cause civil unrest to front page is alarming forgetting greater percentage of visitors and even members only read news on front page and go out
one of the way is to ensure only modest posts grace frontpage

I am already a shadow mod. The mods have a lot to do but someone has to remove most hate speeches, insults to NL members, numerous Bet scammers and so on.

correct and also watch tribalist monikers like chukubuipob, okoyeboz, okoyeebos and his over 5 monikers, kingofalligbos, and so on.

Watch BMCs and other emotional political com enters who tend to be insulting, like clerverly, deomelo etc

Sensor words such as: Ipob, Ignos, afonja, etc.

Naira land used to be sane until tribalist and religious bigoted youths took over.
