About

We study the ways in which radicalization proliferates online, and prevention methods to help individuals build resiliency. We use diversion tactics to disrupt algorithmic radicalization pathways in order to make misogynistic rabbit holes impossible to fall into.

Divert (verb):

cause (someone or something) to change course or turn from one direction to another.

OUR MISSION

We exist to create a world where all people can be safe from misogyny.

Social media platforms that rely on explosive narratives for engagement are amplifying violent misogyny. We developed Diverting Hate to intercept and combat the radicalization of gender-based violence and hatred on these platforms.
