hate post, hate speech Explanation: I'd say hate posts or hate speech ... too much advertising, hate speech and fake news From German hetzen, so a Hetzpost is a post in dem gehetzt wird, a post which attacks someone, which stirs up hatred or incites violence or prejudice against someone (or against a certain group of people). -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 17 hrs (2017-12-14 10:41:22 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- inflammatory comments would be another option but I'd stick with hate speech which (along with fake news) is one of the current buzzwords |
