Abstract
In January 2021, the well-known stand-up artist Aleksandra Petrus, after making a very emotional statement, decided to temporarily suspend her Facebook account due to the hate she suffered as a short person. This event shows that disability is one of the features that causes online hatred and causes suffering for the person who creates and publishes online content on social networks, blogs and websites. This prompted me to conduct netnographic research on hating people with disabilities in social media, which as a result of the Covid-19 epidemic have become much more used also by people with disabilities. The main goal of the article was to recreate what comments are considered hate by people with disabilities creating their channels, profiles on social media or blogs. Then I will analyze the collected entries in order to characterize the phenomenon of hate speech in Poland against people with disabilities on social networks.
