Online abuse could drive women out of political life – the time to act is now

Retrieved on: 
Tuesday, September 26, 2023

It is becoming increasingly evident that life in modern politics is presenting women with a stark choice – endure almost constant online threats and abuse or get out of public life.

Key Points: 
  • It is becoming increasingly evident that life in modern politics is presenting women with a stark choice – endure almost constant online threats and abuse or get out of public life.
  • But the social media era has normalised ever more aggressive forms of abuse.
  • The abuse against Ardern has been so intense that even in retirement she’s expected to have extra police protection.
  • The Economist Intelligence Unit has reported that more than one in three women have experienced online violence.

Driving women out

    • A global survey by Washington-based non-profit National Democratic Institute found that more than half of young women who posted political opinions online were attacked for their views.
    • This amounts to compelling evidence that the problem runs deep, illustrating that people attempting to undermine a government have recognised attacking women as a winning strategy.
    • The examples highlighted in the report don’t merely revolve around hatred towards these women.
    • After years of progress on increasing female participation in political life, democracies around the world are now in real danger of regressing if women are driven out of politics.

We know the problem, we know the solutions

    • Laws already exist that are supposed to protect women from this kind of abuse but they are not being vigorously enforced.
    • It’s also time to rein in the tech platforms and hold them legally accountable for the toxic content they host, pushed out by their algorithms.
    • And if the issue isn’t addressed, it could lead to dire consequences for democracy as women retreat from positions of power.
