摘要:

互联网迅速融入我们的日常生活带来了许多好处,但也带来了一些新的、广泛的威胁,如网上仇恨、拖钓、欺凌和一般的攻击性行为。虽然研究传统上探讨了在线仇恨,特别是在一个平台上,但现实是,这种仇恨是一种经常利用多个在线网络的现象。在本文中,我们试图通过利用比较方法将讨论推进到在线仇恨中,我们利用各种自然语言处理(NLP)技术来计算分析来自Reddit和4chan的与2020年美国总统选举有关的仇恨内容。我们的研究结果显示了内容和发布活动如何根据所使用的平台而有所不同。通过这一点,我们提供了对网络仇恨的特定平台行为的初步比较,以及不同平台如何服务于特定目的。我们进一步提供了几种利用跨平台方法进行未来研究的途径,以便更全面地了解全球仇恨生态系统。

英文摘要:

The rapid integration of the Internet into our daily lives has led to many benefits but also to a number of new, wide-spread threats such as online hate, trolling, bullying, and generally aggressive behaviours. While research has traditionally explored online hate, in particular, on one platform, the reality is that such hate is a phenomenon that often makes use of multiple online networks. In this article, we seek to advance the discussion into online hate by harnessing a comparative approach, where we make use of various Natural Language Processing (NLP) techniques to computationally analyse hateful content from Reddit and 4chan relating to the 2020 US Presidential Elections. Our findings show how content and posting activity can differ depending on the platform being used. Through this, we provide initial comparison into the platform-specific behaviours of online hate, and how different platforms can serve specific purposes. We further provide several avenues for future research utilising a cross-platform approach so as to gain a more comprehensive understanding of the global hate ecosystem.
