The mainstreaming of conspiracy narratives has been associated with a rise in violent offline harms, from harassment, vandalism of communications infrastructure, assault, and in its most extreme form, terrorist attacks. Group-level emotions of anger, contempt, and disgust have been proposed as a pathway to legitimizing violence. Here, we examine expressions of anger, contempt, and disgust as well as violence, threat, hate, planning, grievance, and paranoia within various conspiracy narratives on Parler. We found significant differences between conspiracy narratives for all measures and narratives associated with higher levels of offline violence showing greater levels of expression.

对机器的愤怒：探索 Parler 阴谋论中的暴力和情感


阴谋论的主流化与暴力线下伤害的增加有关，这些伤害来自骚扰、破坏通信基础设施、袭击以及最极端形式的恐怖袭击。愤怒、蔑视和厌恶等群体层面的情绪已被提议作为使暴力合法化的途径。在这里，我们研究了 Parler 上各种阴谋论叙事中的愤怒、蔑视和厌恶以及暴力、威胁、仇恨、计划、不满和偏执的表达。我们发现，所有措施的阴谋论叙事与与较高水平的线下暴力相关的叙述之间存在显著差异，表现出更高水平的表达。
