Hate speech it is speech that attacks a person or group on the basis of e.g.
race, religion, gender, or sexual orientation. A plurality of the hate
speech spread in the internet. We all can often see this in social networks:
facebook, Vkontakte and numerous forums.
For today the most well-known forms of prejudice and
discrimination (on the project) are: racism, sexism, homophobia (negative
prejudice against homosexuality), ageism (prejudice against the elderly).
According to the theory G. Allport (Allport's Scale of
Prejudice and Discrimination [1]), components of prejudice and discrimination includes five stages:
1) verbalization (jokes, insults), 2) avoidance, 3) discrimination (with the
exception of certain areas of social life), 4) acts of violence, 5) destruction
(destruction of the group).
As a psychologist, I can explain it sewerage aggressive energy to the
independent objects. Sewerage aggression can be just transfer it to another
form, less dangerous. So, better to curse than to fight or maim yourself, or
better yet - to vent his anger on an inanimate object.
In real life and in the internet I personally met with many hate pictures and discussions
of the discrimination. In looking for work I often putting limitations of the
sex. (for example I’m putting this pictures)
To reduce prejudice, social psychologists use such
mechanisms and ways as awareness and recognition of prejudice; contact between
groups having equal status and having common interests ("contact
hypothesis"), a special method of cooperative learning ("mosaic
class").
I find useful of social practices
PSAs videos, social movement among the youth for free right and free speech
(for example: https://www.facebook.com/nohatespeech, https://vk.com/public60487140 ).
Now - what concerns psychic
protection. Must be avoided by people close to you normally feel exhausted and
irritated. Do not let these people were too close to you, violating your
personal space, the more you touched. If it is possible, just say goodbye and
leave. In the case of online discussion and abuse (trolling) is also avoided
and better not to give in on provocation.
I agree with Erich Fromm‘s vision of
human development perspective. He saw the transformation of modern "sick
society" based on creating the conditions for self-realization and
creativity of man ("humanist radicalism" from the domination of the
love of life) [2].
