It highlights how {\textquoteleft}online othering{\textquoteright} is patriarchal, but also involves intersectionalities with other social positionalities. We also discuss how {\textquoteleft}online othering{\textquoteright} is difficult to regulate and police and highlight the ineffective role of Internet and social media corporations, as the Internet economy drives and privileges profit and speed of communication. We highlight how {\textquoteleft}online othering{\textquoteright} can involve resistance and activism, and that digital media has been utilised to challenge hate. The chapter concludes by suggesting future lines of inquiry and applications of the concept of {\textquoteleft}online othering{\textquoteright}.",
