Twitter witnesses record hate speech against China

After the new epidemic of the Coronavirus, the hate speech on Twitter against China and the Chinese people reached a record of 900%, as new reports show signs such as #Kungflu, #chinesevirus, and #communistvirus are about to post tweets from the epidemic on individuals becoming more popular.

The report came from L1ght, an online hate company, when it panicked several American human rights groups, activists, and politicians because of the repeated racist incidents against Asian Americans.

From December 2019 to today, L1ght analyzed millions of websites, social networks, chat rooms and game sites. She also analyzed images, video clips, and audio to determine the increase in online hate speech.

The new epidemic of coronavirus began in December 2019 in Wuhan, China, and then quickly spread to almost all countries of the world. The most recent data indicate that about 600,000 people have been infected, about 27,000 people have died, and many countries in the past month. Mandatory quarantine operations forced millions of people to stay indoors.

"People are spending more time on social media, communication applications, chat rooms and game services, and long-term problems on these platforms (such as hate, abuse and harassment) are getting worse," the report said.

"Most of this hate and abuse is directed against Asians in China and its residents, as well as in other parts of the world," the startup added. The company uses artificial intelligence to discover malicious content on social networks.

The report found that hate speech online was high when the epidemic was first discovered in China. The study found that poisonous tweets used explicit language to accuse Asians of carrying the corona virus on the rise and accuse Asians of spreading this virus.

Some media encouraged strong opposition to Asians, and the report showed a video on Sky News Australia entitled "China Deliberately Infected the World with Corona Virus", which now contains more than 5,000 comments, most of which hate it

Trump said at a press conference earlier this month that critics claim that President Donald Trump's repeated reference to the halo virus as a "Chinese virus" has led to xenophobia. He said at a press conference: We are seeing great progress in the war against the Chinese virus.
