Make Racism on Social Media a Criminal Offence.
Background
Social media platforms need to take more accountability when it comes to users being racist towards others, on their platforms. On the Social media platform Tiktok for example, people can comment on others and the reporting system mostly always comes back with no violations found.
Additional details
There needs to be stricter rules regarding social media and what gets done when racism is being reported. It is taking a toll on many people's life's who have to deal with comments of a Racist nature. Users can use slurs about cotton picking, boats or monkeys and get away with it. There needs to be something in place that sees some form of punishment, or more lives will be lost due to the daily harrasment.
