We do not tolerate hatred on our social networks

Faced with the persistent and hardly controllable hatred that flourishes on the internet, we act, on our scale. Aufeminin does not tolerate any hate speech on its social networks.

If we do not tolerate hate speech on aufeminin, it is above all to go in the direction of the values ​​that we defend. To ban these messages is to protect our readers who will read these offensive comments and those who express themselves on our networks. Ensuring benevolence in our articles but also in the publications of our articles published on Facebook, for example, is essential. Because if behind each screen there is someone who comments on publications, others read them. As a user, we know what we write but we don't necessarily know who we are talking to. A simple insult can hurt a mass and, above all, the most vulnerable. When writing aufeminin, we therefore refuse to be a platform encouraging hate messages.

A space for free expression

However, we support the discussions built and without insult. The themes we discuss on aufeminin are close to our hearts. They are committed and inclusive. This is why we want to make you react, debate and express your feelings about the world around us. In our view, it is still important to allow you to comment on our publications, as this may be an opportunity for you, readers, to provide additional information or a point of view. We are open to criticism but only if it is argued and that it advances the debate.

Say no to hate

We attach particular importance to freedom of expression. But there is a difference between a debate and an insult. That’s why we refuse to be sounding boards blossoming with offensive and hurtful ideas. If comments are insulting, they are banned. We refuse to say anything. It would be complicit in hate speech. It would be to trivialize verbal violence, to contribute to it in some way. By deleting, we are positioning ourselves against, we are active in the face of this scourge.

We are committed to making aufeminin an anti-hate space where everyone can express themselves with mutual respect.

Strengthen sorority and caring

Thanks to this policy against hateful comments, we hope to be able to make aufeminin, and its social networks, a serene and benevolent space. A space that gives pride of place to mutual aid and sorority where we bring our readers together around common interests. Our mission: support you, inform you, entertain you, inspire you but never hurt you. Moderation of hate speech is one of our priorities. And believe us, we will always be extremely vigilant.
