An online hate expert gives evidence to a royal commission examining anti-Semitism, saying some Holocaust jokes have evaded social media bans. The expert argues that enforcement systems can misclassify such content: instead of treating the material as hateful or anti-Semitic, platforms may label it as “humour.” This classification, the expert says, affects whether the posts are removed or restricted, allowing the jokes to remain accessible despite moderation action. The testimony highlights difficulties in monitoring and applying consistent standards across platforms when content combines discriminatory references with language framed as comedy. The sources report that the expert’s comments focus on how platform categorisation decisions can undermine the effectiveness of anti-hate enforcement, particularly for content that targets Jewish people by reference to the Holocaust. Overall, the evidence presented to the commission centers on monitoring gaps and the role of content classification in whether anti-Semitic material is detected and acted on by social media services.
