What do you do to combat racism on the Internet?

Question

Do you ignore it, expose it, educate those who believe it, fight it, hack it? How do you use the internet to challenge racism? By racism I mean ALL racial groups, even whites for there are sites that would very much like to abolish the white race. How does this make you feel, and what do you personally do about it?

Answer 1

i answer questions in chat rooms and boards like this, exposing mistakes and hatred and educating.

Answer 2

Actually, I think that is a good question to ask. Racially charged questions with the intent to offend should not be allowed on Yahoo answers. Yahoo Answers' purpose was not to provoke racism and anger in people.

Answer 3

I think there is freedom to do whatever we want to do. Many have websites that talk about racism, but it's their choice and it's their right. I don't go into any websites that talk about these things because I don't think it healthy for me to get angry about things I can't control. Unless someone posts something racist here then I do something about it because there are rules here and it's public. Although this issue might irritate you, there are other things that irritate like pornography, but since it's everyone's right to have whatever they like on the internet, then we unfortunately can't do much about it.
