Rabbi Abraham Cooper, an associate dean at the Simon Wiesenthal Center, shared key findings from his organization’s annual study of online terror and hate. 
(he)..attributes a third of the 30 percent spike to blogs and discussion groups that support terrorism. The rest is the material of age-old hatreds–40 percent anti-Semitic, 20 percent anti-black, 15 percent anti-immigrant and the rest a hodge-podge of anti-religious, anti-government sentiment
I hope technology industry develops enough tools to reduce the pain inflicted on receiving side. Hate and stereotyping is part of our society, cannot be completely removed. With enough reputation and transparency tools in place, we can design slightly more civilized conversation framework.
