## Resource

A parliamentary inquiry into racism and violence against Indigenous Australians has revealed a crisis online, with over 400 submissions detailing how social media algorithms are amplifying hate and taking a devastating toll on mental health. The Australian Human Rights Commission is calling for a new digital duty of care to hold platforms accountable for harmful content. Despite clear violations, sites like Facebook often allow offensive material to remain, fueling a daily barrage of attacks that leave many feeling targeted and judged. A viral video mocking Indigenous culture, defended as satire, sparked outrage, led to the creator’s job loss, and galvanized support for Indigenous mental health initiatives. This relentless online toxicity underscores the urgent need for stronger protections and accountability. Support the show: Get a discount at https://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
