A wave of online misogyny and abuse has followed last Wednesday’s protest for Daphne Caruana Galizia in Valletta. Labour Party supporters, who have been thought to hate Daphne Caruana Galizia over the years, reacted to the news and imagery of the protests with online abuse and misogyny.

Comments even included men telling women they wished they were raped, including a comment aimed at ADPD – Green Party leader Sandra Gauci.

Comments like these are made on a regular basis by Labour Party supporters as can be viewed below.

    Empty vessels.

    Education has gone to the dogs! Some people are incapable of reason, they just spew malice, mediorcity at it’s best.

    Proud to be Maltese, NOT.

    Thank you for reporting on this cycle of benighted savagery.

    It makes for distressing, yet required, reading – not least because it serves as a public show of support for the women who are at the receiving line of such despicable and degrading comments.

    Because the women who dare speak their mind, the women who dare stand up for what is right and just, continue to be viciously demonized and deemed fair game by this online mob with all its ancient misogyny and clan loyalty.

    Solidarity with the women who refuse to remain silent in the face of corruption and impunity.
