Vice President Kamala Harris and administration officials on Thursday launched a task force dedicated to fighting online harassment and abuse, which they warned can be a precursor to real-life violence.

The following report is from the Associated Press:

“The internet is an essential part of life in the 21st century,” Harris said, but for many — particularly women, people of color, and people who are not heterosexual — “the internet is a place of fear.”

The task force will address several issues, including prevention of online abuse and services for people who are targeted. It is scheduled to issue recommendations for the federal government and private companies in 180 days.

All of us have a responsibility to stand together to support those who have gone through this, and also recognize they shouldn’t have to be alone fighting on this issue.

Harris said.

Although the problem is not new, it has taken on new urgency following mass shootings in Texas and New York that were predated by misogynist and racist commentary on social media and message boards.

Harris was introduced by Sloane Stephens, a Black professional tennis player who has faced a torrent of racist abuse.

I’m a daughter, a sister, a wife. And I am more than an athlete, more than a label. Yet all of that is disregarded when people online seek to harass me and harm me. No matter whether I win or lose, someone online is mad, and they will make it known.

Stephens said.

After matches, Stephens said, she is worried to pick up her phone because “I know what will be waiting for me when I unlock it.”

The National Security Council is working with the White House Gender Policy Council on the initiative, and Attorney General Merrick Garland and Surgeon General Vivek Murthy participated in Thursday’s announcement.

Garland said the Justice Department had dedicated additional resources to issues like online stalking.

We are committed to relentlessly investigating these crimes, bringing to justice those who perpetrate them, and providing support for the survivors.

He said

Murthy said people often turn to the internet when they are lonely or looking to make connections, “yet all too often what they find instead is harassment and abuse.”

It can no longer be acceptable for a technology company to put out a product and walk away from the responsibility for how it impacts users and communities. It can no longer be OK for social media platforms to be fertile grounds for hatred.

He said.

AUTHOR COMMENTARY

[25] How forcible are right words! but what doth your arguing reprove? [26] Do ye imagine to reprove words, and the speeches of one that is desperate, which are as wind?

Job 6:25-26

While this would obviously create more censorship online, I honestly think this is more of a media stunt than anything else, to try and sustain a ragtag group of progressive voters.


[7] Who goeth a warfare any time at his own charges? who planteth a vineyard, and eateth not of the fruit thereof? or who feedeth a flock, and eateth not of the milk of the flock? [8] Say I these things as a man? or saith not the law the same also? [9] For it is written in the law of Moses, Thou shalt not muzzle the mouth of the ox that treadeth out the corn. Doth God take care for oxen? [10] Or saith he it altogether for our sakes? For our sakes, no doubt, this is written: that he that ploweth should plow in hope; and that he that thresheth in hope should be partaker of his hope. (1 Corinthians 9:7-10).

  • Funny.
    Most of the online hate, perverted messages, and death threats I have received in the past 10 years online has come from devils, and Freemasons, and rabid Catholics (mostly Knights of Columbus and Jesuit coadjutors), and government agents and military intelligence doing perception management campaigns.

    Is Catholic Kamila going to go after her own military and government from doing these psychological operations and peddling blackpropaganda? I think not.

    They (the RCC and God haters worldwide) want to silence the word of God with every censorship nonsense they think up, because the scriptures, the KJV, points the finger at who they are and what they are doing.

    Kamila got her job as VP for being a good altar girl. She silenced a more than a decade of sex abuse victims and evidence for the RCC when she was attorney general in California. Huge coverup considering all the evidence was ready to go and the investigations signed by the previous attorney general.

  • Interpretation: Don’t you dare tell the truth or make people uncomfortable with conviction warning lost sinners on their way to Hell, or even talking about godly things bringing the discomfort of comparison or shortfalls from God’s righteousness & Law.

    Don’t talk King James Bible because it’s too blunt & plain (not obscure & hard to understand at all), & exposes true prophetic things plainly distinguishing between the Lord & things of the Lord, & the god of this world & his preferred profane things. …..Offending even Laodicea & MYSTERY with all the Jezebels, hirelings, false prophets & Balaamites….threatening to shake them awake & bring uncomfortable….and deflating, costly conviction of responsibility & sin; & to expose the inner workings of the bloody builders who’ve rejected the chief cornerstone & their conspiracies against God even worked blasphemously in the Lord’s name.

    Harris’ family is a blend of historical white elite slave holding Bermudans w/ some voodoo black, & political caste Hindu….spiritually corrupt, elitist & fascist as they come by choice & belief & connections: not genetics. Her only hope is to get saved like anyone else, but her very real sins & tradition & the brotherhood she’s in hook her in deep & separate her from God.

    Her specialty in California was ‘being hard on crime’ defined as sending nonviolent ‘drug’ offenders to prison to work government labor on the cheap, like, well, slaves….while the violent drug gangsters of the Deep State (ours, Mexico’s and several other Central & South American, Middle Eastern & Chinese with tentacles reaching back to Rome: sin sells & unites, while keeping the self-righteous dialectic turnstile & conflict going) were just turned back onto the streets like the BLM nonsense & set up. She was groomed by Willie Brown, who advised her to politely turn down the offer of vice president & to shoot for attorney general, because he felt she’d have more power & impact in that position.

    No doubt she covered for Rome’s perversions & abuse; along with any other high end pervert criminal with the ability to pay for it & linked in through the brotherhood.

    She’d already proven very good in that transformative game of activism, using race-baiting while sending multitudes of black & Hispanic non-violent offenders into the prison work camps & drug/counsel experimentation centers, into the for- profit prisons, and so forth. Transferring a lot of wealth & liberty to the State through the dumbing down, demoralization….pump in the drugs strategy.

    More of the same coming with this position, no doubt.
