Beskrivelse

Webinar as part of the project “

This talk will present the results of a mixed methods inquiry into the so-called "Incel" (involuntary celibate) community online. This community has recently been associated with violent mass killings, and is marked by an often hateful discourse. This talk will discuss how the incel community constructs the ideas of their in-group representatives and out-group representatives (colloquially: "Chads" and "Stacies") as well as how their hatespeech can be seen as divided along gendered lines. Christoffer Bagger’s research centers on how digital media allow people to both connect with existing contexts, and create new ones as well. He is currently attached to the DFF-sponsored project "Personalizing the professional".
