More DescriptionThis report from the Online Hate Prevention Institute, in partnership with the Executive Council of Australian Jewry, examines online antisemitism in Australia. It is based on a sample of antisemitic content manually collected by experts from nine social media platforms between November 3, 2022 and June 2, 2023. The platforms examined are Twitter, Facebook, Telegram, TikTok, Gab, YouTube, Bitchute, Instagram, and Reddit. This report provides both quantitative and qualitative analysis of this data including an examination of takedown rates by the platforms after content was reported to them. The report also categorises content according a taxonomy based on the International Holocaust Remembrance Alliance (IHRA) Working Definition of Antisemitism and IHRA's Working Definition of Holocaust Denial and Distortion. The taxonomy includes four major categories of antisemitism and twenty-six subcategories. In response to the findings this report makes a number of recommendations for the Australian government and for technology platforms.
