I know most people that were on reddit at the time are fully aware of this and won’t be surprised but don’t dismiss the findings out of hand. It’s important that studies are being conducted and the fact that the finding match our lived experience is still noteworthy.
So what’s the definition of white nationalist vocabulary?
EDIT: Why da fuck am I getting down voted for wanting specifics on the very premise of the article?
If you were familiar with far-right extremists before Reddit gave them a comfy little platform, it was painfully obvious.
Sticking to vocabulary only, terms like “cuck” becoming their favourite insult was straight from neo-nazi circles, where it very deliberately meant “race traitor” – someone who would let a black man fuck their wife.
Since it had the most plausible deniability behind it, “cuck” survived about as long as “alt-right” did, before it became obvious to even the dullest of fucks that it was all just neo-nazis.
But scattered around that, you had terms like “Zionists” and “ethnostate” that aren’t inherently Nazi terms but are neo-nazis go-to problem and solution. You had outright dogwhistles like (((Soros))) and 1488. You had preferred slurs for women and minorities that came straight from places that were openly far-right, Holocaust advocates.
You also had various versions of the same old Protocols/Mein Kamph conspiracy theories, custom built for internet reactionaries. Hell, the anti-Hillary frenzy escalated to accused the Democrats of blood libel for fucks sake – one of the oldest antisemitic conspiracy theories there is.
Most of these came and went as they carefully balanced remaining “mask on”. If it became too much of a give away, it was retired and replaced. These days, they know to not even name their movement, because it makes it harder to attack. The “alt-right” is now just “Republicans” so they can hide their extremism behind moderates.
Anyway, fuck the lot of them. Reddit providing a platform for groups like neo-nazis and anti-vaxxers has likely caused more social damage than anything on the internet to date.
Sounds like they learned well from the progressive left :D
There’s no such thing as ‘woke’!
Sounds like you’re a cunt.
Sir ur not allowed to point out that both sides are using the same strategies. If ur socialist ur allowed to use any means to achieve the goals u desire because they are grounded in superior morality.
Wow that’s a lot of text with a lot of opinion I don’t really care for. I was more looking for a list but all I got was cuck, zionist, ethnostate, soros, and 1488. The rest is ideas and concepts and Dumas’s conspiracy theories not vocaulary.
Also imo its incredibly nieve to lump anyone who identifies with republican as an alt-right Nazi. That is literally the same generalisation group think blame game that Hitler used to blame and prosecute the Jews.
I guess my only other question is why are the Palestinian protesters using at least 2 of these ideas/words?
What a shock, you didn’t want an answer, you wanted the foundation of apologist talking points to bail out your friends.
Damn, you wanted a list and all you got was a list. If you want something more specific, buy the paper instead of insisting people spoon feed you answers. My money would be on you being perfectly aware what that list contains but hoping nobody wanted to write you out a giant list of racist, sexist and antisemitic slurs.
Yes, as I clearly stated.
Not a thing I did, but if you’re upset that your friends and family are being labeled as scumbags just because they vote, bankroll and repeat the talking points of scumbags, maybe you should direct your tantrum at the alt-right Nazis and the Republicans that tolerate them, if not openly support them.
Fuck off with your “the left are the real Nazis”. I’m not shipping people off to death camps, I’m pointing out the undeniable fact that the Republican party is riddled with far-right fuckstains, an idea that apparently hurts your feelings.
They’re not remotely comparable acts on any level and I’m not going to fall for the awkward manipulation tactics you learned on 4chan.
Rub your two braincells together and see if they spark. Zionism plays an important part in Israeli hostilities towards Gaza. That doesn’t mean far-right conspiracy theories about Jews running the world and needing genociding have any merit.
You’re blatantly just trying to link my opinions to Hitler (hoping people will be dull enough to think “both people bad”) and racist extremists to Palestinians (hoping people will be dull enough to think “both groups good”).
Save the awkward manipulation for whatever members of your family still speak to you.
I wanted a list I thought I said that? I refuse to pay hence I asked as I want to be better educated on the topic.
Here is u lumping all republicans together with the people u call extremists Nazis, antivaxxers, and antisemites.
I never said the left where Nazis. I made no comment of political affiliation or assumptions about you or myself.
The right is riddled with far right extremists same as the left is riddled with far left extremists. The reason u do that see them as extremists is because u are aligned with them (no extremist thinks they are an extremist).
They are completely comparable acts both Hitler and the left are finding real examples of a problem, both then selected a section of these people based on a common ideology (that they happen to not like), both then attributed the bad shit committed by a small percentage no higher than the societal average to the whole group, both then used that to organise societal prosecution of the whole group based on the actions of a few. Hitler not the left then used the general disapproval of these people to relocate them which he then used as justification to murder them because out of sign out of mind. Lot of similarities here.
So its antisemitic when the right does it but acceptable to literally call for the destruction of their nation if the left does it (from the river to the sea etc)? That’s some very impressive doublethink does 2+2=5?
I’m not trying to link u to Hitler just pointing out the similarities and ur hypocritical or idiotic refuse to a knowledge said similarities. I have literally no say power or influence over what 2 other sovereign nations choose to do. It is quite literally 2 democratic nations going to war with each other I believe that we should respect the peoples decisions on how their democratically elected government operates. I’m simply concerning myself with the actions violence and hate happing in my backyard.
That’s two mentions of my family not speaking to me. I’m not sure what kind of a psychopathic family refused to talk to someone because of political ideology but Me thinks you doth protest to much.
Nope. You asked “So what’s the definition of white nationalist vocabulary?” and then when that was answered, you moved the goal posts.
Nope, there is me explaining that the far-right no longer give themselves labels like “alt-right” and instead insist they’re regular Repiblicans so that apologists like you can claim “you just call all Republicans Nazis”.
You’ve tried really hard to strip that context out of your quote but since you knew cutting the sentence off half way through would be too obvious, there’s still enough context there to show you’re lying. It’s right there in the “so they can hide behind moderates” part – who are the “moderates” if I’m calling all Republicans Nazis?
Not even remotely close. I know you’ve been trained to bleat “both sides” on command but this isn’t going to fool anyone outside your little bubble of people who will believe anything as long as it’s right wing.
But sure, let’s play. Who are the Democrat versions of Matt Gaetz or MTG, both of whom are seeing to control what people learn by attacking teachers and banning books? Who is the Democrat version of Paul Gosar, who has shared videos depicting violence against their political rivals? Who are the Democrats promoting conspiracy theories to undermine elections, like Boebert and Trump?
Not nearly as many differences. Bullshit comparisons like this are trivial to make and I could link Hitler to 100 Republicans in 1000 ways using surface level shit that everyone does, even without lying.
Hitler isn’t known as one of the most vile people to ever live because he made generalisations about a group of people, it’s because he was a political leader who arranged to systemically murder millions of innocent people.
I genuinely can’t even figure out what your point is supposed to be here.
Nope, I just keep tabs on what extremists are up to and it’s common to see both “how do I redpill my friends and family?” and “my family doesn’t speak to me any more”.
Don’t worry, I’m sure they’re unrelated and your family are good people that know your true opinions.
Too be fair I too was looking for something of a list. Of the few words mentionned in the comments, I only knew about cuck and I thought it was a fetish thing.
I’m not too sure why people on here tend to exaggerate the slightest of things. One can simply be curious, you know.
And I don’t know why everyone is defending the paywall. I thought lemmy was leftist and leftists were agaisnt this kind of thing. Especially since most papers, if not all, are partially or fully funded by taxpayer money.

Just because you can’t spot the bullshit doesn’t mean it’s not there. By your own admission you didn’t know any of the dogwhistles nor the extra layer of gross in their love of calling everyone “cucks”.
You fell for their plausible deniability but many of us have seen these tricks 1000 times now. We’re not exaggerating, we’re experienced.
I’m not defending the paywall. If someone wants to undermine the content of the paper, they can start by reading it, not crowd-sourcing excuses.
Well that’s the point. I know what cuck can mean in that context now because it was mentionned and I was able to look it up. If everyone wants to hide what the other words are because “it’s so obvious you’re an idiot for not knowing them”, how am I supposed to recognize them in the wild? As it is I’ll probably just hear some fancy new term and assume they’re educated.
As for the paywall, maybe you weren’t against it yourself but the other comments that were agaisnt it got downvoted, though perhaps it wasn’t the sole reason.
Nobody is hiding anything. They’re slurs and dogwhistles. If you really want to know what they are, use your initiative to look them up. Insisting people on social media to explain it to you is not only indistinguishable from sea-lioning but a great way to get manipulated.
I was looking for the ones mentionned in the study I couldn’t read. I ended up looking them up as you said and that did the job too I suppose.
I mean, you asked a bunch of random strangers instead of going to google, so ya gets what ya gets, I guess.
Riiiight… becasue right-wingers are born right-wingers, correct? Is that why you want to equate right-wingers playing the victim card to people who were actually murdered simply for existing?
As you yourself have just proven - all right-wingers walk the same path.
Good job outing yourself, fascist.
If u could read u would realise that’s not what I said at all. If I really wanted to equate the left with Hitler I would point out he gained most of his public support from promising everyone land a fammilly and job. Sounds like the same thing socialism is promising.
Have u ever gone and spoken to a republican in person? have u ever gone and had a legitimate conversation with one? Have u even left the world greatest 3rd world country?
And since it seems to be your culture to call me a facist as an Aussie its culturaly insensitive for you to stop me calling you a cunt.
FTFY… but I guess it doesn’t sound very socialist any more now, does it?
Why? I grew up in a fascist regime, genius - I have been hearing the garbage fascists peddle since birth.
Newsflash - you all sound the same.
I don’t see how which group ur pandering to matters?
in person?
So that’s a no? Get off the fucking internet and go civilly speak to the goddamn people especially the ones u disagree with.
Of course you don’t, fascist.
Which part of…
…didn’t you understand the first time around, fascist?
What makes u think I’m a facist what facist things have a done/said?
My guess would be because they are protesting a Zionist ethnostate.
So they are using and you are using a word that according to this article is radicalising or is that only when the right uses it?
