The Biden administration's disinformation czar claimed in a book she authored this year she will not be “silenced” on social media as she pushed back against what she considered to be “harassment” from men when she shared her opinions online. She claimed the “infrastructure of the internet is built for men.'
as she pushed back against what she considered to be"harassment" from men whenever she shared opinions online.In her recent book,"How to Be a Woman Online," Nina Jankowicz raises concerns on a number of subjects surrounding the backlash women face online, placing great focus on how men respond to what she has to say.
"[T]he relentless stream of online misogyny to which I and millions of other women who deign to engage in public discourse have been subject sometimes rattles me," she wrote."I may have a slightly thicker skin than some, but watching thousands of strangers criticize my appearance, experience, and expertise is not easy. Watching them objectify me is not easy. Watching them deny me and other women our basic democratic and human rights is not easy.
Bringing race into the equation of"online misogyny," Jankowicz wrote that she, as a"straight, cisgender, white woman," cannot imagine how a woman"who is part of another ethnically, racially, or sexually marginalized group" deals with online experiences. According to Jankowicz, those women are"even more likely to be targeted, and the attacks are likely to be more vicious.
Noting in the book that she has never"really been afraid" to voice her opinions around men, Jankowicz reflected on the time she"pecked a little boy in the face while dressed up as a ‘bird princess’ on Halloween" when she was in the first grade. Reflecting on her own experiences, Jankowicz wrote in the book that she is dedicated to ensuring that women have an"equal voice" on social media and said she refuses to"be silenced about our collective experience of harassment, abuse, and inequity, online or off."
