QAnon&rsquo;s Antisemitism and What Comes Next
If there is a single thread that links QAnon&rsquo;s origins, its current state and where the conspiracy theory is likely to go in the short- to medium-term, it&rsquo;s antisemitism.

Hate is No Game: Harassment and Positive Social Experiences in Online Games 2021
Ninety-seven million Americans play online multiplayer games. While virtually all players surveyed in ADL&rsquo;s third annual report on experiences in online games appreciated the social connectivity of gaming, an alarmingly large majority continue to encounter a firehose of hate and harassment. ADL&rsquo;s survey explores the social interactions, experiences, attitudes, and behaviors of online multiplayer gamers nationwide. This year&rsquo;s survey again asked about the experiences of a nationally representative sample of the nearly 100 million adult online multiplayer gamers in the United States. For the first time, it also included the experience of young gamers, ages 13-17.


For the third consecutive year, ADL&rsquo;s survey found that harassment experienced by adult gamers increased and remains at alarmingly high levels, while the new research on the experience of teens also raises significant concerns.
