When Hate Speech Leads to Hateful Actions: a Corpus and Discourse Analytic Approach to Linguistic Threat Assessment of Hate Speech WHEN HATE SPEECH LEADS TO HATEFUL ACTIONS: A CORPUS AND DISCOURSE ANALYTIC APPROACH TO LINGUISTIC THREAT ASSESSMENT OF HATE SPEECH A Dissertation submitted to the FaCulty of the Graduate SChool of Arts and SCiences of Georgetown University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in LinguistiCs By Alexandria Marsters, M.S. Washington, DC April 1, 2019 Copyright 2019 Alexandria Marsters All Rights Reserved ii WHEN HATE SPEECH LEADS TO HATEFUL ACTIONS: A CORPUS AND DISCOURSE ANALYTIC APPROACH TO LINGUISTIC THREAT ASSESSMENT OF HATE SPEECH Alexandria Marsters, M.S. Thesis Advisor: Natalie SChilling, Ph.D. ABSTRACT Inspired by reCent aCts of mass violence motivated by hate, this work considers hate speeCh from a sociolinguistiC perspeCtive by combining corpus analysis and disCourse analytiC methods. The goals of this work are twofold. First, this research aims to propose a comprehensive definition of hate speeCh by leveraging the linguistiC body of knowledge in conjunction with insights from legal sCholarship, cross-disCiplinary aCademiC work, lexiCography, and non-aCademiC perspeCtives colleCted through a two-part survey. This work then employs the definition of hate speeCh that is developed to build two corpora of hate speeCh, one authored by those who went on to commit violence and the other by those who did not, called “Hunters” and “Howlers” respeCtively aCCording to the threat assessment paradigm of Calhoun and Weston (2009; 2012). These data are used to address the seCond goal – to enriCh future threat assessment protocols by identifying language patterns whiCh correlate with violent behavior by the authors of hate speeCh. A bottom-up and top-down corpus analysis is complemented by a disCourse analytiC case study whiCh focuses on positioning and stancetaking within two texts, one Hunter and one Howler, to identify a number of linguistiC forms and functions that differentiate the Hunters’ hate speeCh from the Howlers’. iii DEDICATION Dad, there are more than 80,000 words in this dissertation, but I have no words for how much I miss you. This is for you. ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS My name is on this dissertation, but that doesn’t begin to refleCt the many people without whom this work would never have happened. First, I would like to thank my wonderful Committee – Heidi Hamilton, Tammy Gales, and espeCially my advisor Natalie SChilling. There were twists, turns, and more than a few delays in this work and the support and encouragement I reCeived throughout it all from the three of you was beyond words. Natalie, you always managed to find all the things I was hoping you wouldn’t notiCe in every draft and never failed to help me make them better. From the moment I stepped foot into your classroom as a master’s student through our previous collaborations and now this dissertation, I am a much better writer, analyst, and linguist than I ever thought I could be beCause of your tremendous guidance and expertise. SeCond, I need to thank my colleague and dear friend Lauren Johnson, who has been my sounding board, my editor, my cheerleader, and has been more helpful than I could ever tell you. I know this work forced you to confront some dark plaCes on the internet and you faCed them (and all my bad drafts) with courage and kindness. I would also be remiss if I did not thank Dr. David Brown. You got me on traCk with Wmatrix and my corpus analysis. I am so grateful for your help. iv I also need to thank those who supported me personally in my long road to completing this projeCt. A big thank you to my LPRU family, espeCially Maria ACevedo and Megan Ratti, who were endlessly supportive and always helped me defleCt when people asked “how’s the dissertation going?” and “are you almost finished?” To my parents and my brothers, Matthew and Frank, you are all I ever could ask for in a supporting and loving family. You encouraged me, commiserated with me, and loved me even when I was stressed and felt like this was never going to end. There has never been anything I tried that you didn’t believe I could aChieve. Matthew and Frank, you are my brothers by blood, my best friends by choiCe, and two of the greatest gifts in my life. To my very-soon-to-be husband Sean, I could not have done this without you. You were the only thing that got me through when my Word file was corrupted 10 minutes after I had finished the final table of contents. You gave me the strength to do this when I didn’t believe that I could. Through all the frustration and doubt, no one has been more supportive. You are my sun and stars. You are the champion of my heart. I love you. Finally, to my handsome pup Loki, I will be more fun now that I’m not glued to my computer every day after work. We will play with so many squeaky toys, I promise. v TABLE OF CONTENTS Chapter 1 Introduction ........................................................................................................ 1 1.1 Motivations and ImpliCations of Research ............................................................... 2 1.2 Research Questions .................................................................................................. 5 1.2.1 Research Question 1 ........................................................................................... 6 1.2.2 Research Questions 2 and 3 ................................................................................ 8 1.2.3 Research Questions 4 and 5 ................................................................................ 9 1.3 Brief Summary of Results ...................................................................................... 10 1.4 Dissertation Outline ................................................................................................ 13 Chapter 2 Defining Hate SpeeCh ....................................................................................... 14 2.1 SpeeCh ACt Theory ................................................................................................. 16 2.1.1 Threats as SpeeCh Acts ..................................................................................... 19 2.1.2 Incitement and Insults as SpeeCh ACts ............................................................. 22 2.2 Legal Definitions of Hate SpeeCh ........................................................................... 24 2.3 ACademiC and LexiCographiC Definitions of Hate SpeeCh ..................................... 29 2.4 Hate SpeeCh Survey ................................................................................................ 40 2.4.1 Initial Survey Design ........................................................................................ 41 2.4.2 Initial Survey Respondents ............................................................................... 45 2.4.3 Initial Survey Results ....................................................................................... 47 2.4.4 Follow-up Survey ............................................................................................. 56 2.5 Comprehensive Definition of Hate Speech ............................................................ 63 Chapter 3 A Corpus Analysis of Hunter and Howler Hate SpeeCh .................................. 71 3.1 Hunters vs Howlers: Those Who ACt and Those Who Don’t ................................ 75 3.2 Threat Assessment Literature Review .................................................................... 80 3.3 Corpus AnalytiC Methods ....................................................................................... 92 3.4 SystemiC Functional LinguistiCs ............................................................................ 99 3.5 Stance ................................................................................................................... 105 3.6 Text SeleCtion ...................................................................................................... 107 3.7 Corpus Analysis ................................................................................................... 115 3.7.1 First Person Singular Nominative Personal Pronouns ................................... 122 3.7.2 Modals ............................................................................................................ 127 3.7.3 Verbs of Violence and Anger ......................................................................... 134 3.7.4 Slurs and Epithets ........................................................................................... 139 3.7.5 Evaluative Modifiers ...................................................................................... 141 3.8 DisCussion ............................................................................................................ 145 Chapter 4 Analysis of Positioning and Stance in Two Examples of Hate SpeeCh ......... 152 4.1 TheoretiCal Foundations ....................................................................................... 156 4.1.1 Positioning Theory ......................................................................................... 156 4.1.2 Stance ............................................................................................................. 161 4.1.3 EpistemiC DisCourse Analysis ........................................................................ 166 4.2 Text SeleCtion ....................................................................................................... 174 4.3 Hunter’s and Howler’s SelF-Positioning .............................................................

    Identitarian movement The identitarian movement (otherwise known as Identitarianism) is a European and North American[2][3][4][5] white nationalist[5][6][7] movement originating in France. The identitarians began as a youth movement deriving from the French Nouvelle Droite (New Right) Génération Identitaire and the anti-Zionist and National Bolshevik Unité Radicale. Although initially the youth wing of the anti- immigration and nativist Bloc Identitaire, it has taken on its own identity and is largely classified as a separate entity altogether.[8] The movement is a part of the counter-jihad movement,[9] with many in it believing in the white genocide conspiracy theory.[10][11] It also supports the concept of a "Europe of 100 flags".[12] The movement has also been described as being a part of the global alt-right.[13][14][15] Lambda, the symbol of the Identitarian movement; intended to commemorate the Battle of Thermopylae[1] Contents Geography In Europe In North America Links to violence and neo-Nazism References Further reading External links Geography In Europe The main Identitarian youth movement is Génération identitaire in France, a youth wing of the Bloc identitaire party.

Recent events have only reaffirmed the centrality of Southeast European stability within the broader continental security paradigm. Both de- mocratization and socio-economic justice are intrinsic aspects of a larger progressive peace policy in the region, but so too are consistent threat assessments and efforts to prevent conflict before it erupts. Dialogue SOE aims to broaden the discourse on peace and stability in southeastern Europe and to counter the securitization of prevalent narratives by providing regular analysis that involves a comprehensive understanding of human security, including structural sources of conflict. The briefings cover fourteen countries in southeastern Europe: the seven post-Yugoslav countries and Albania, Greece, Turkey, Cyprus, Bulgaria, Romania, and Moldova.

  • Mobilizing White Power
    1 MOBILIZING WHITE POWER Music, Culture, and Politics here’s a whole other genre of music out there that no one ever “Thears about and its [sic] real powerful, especially at that awkward stage where no one exactly knows who they are.”1 This California teen- age skin girl is talking about white power music. Resistance Records, once the major distributor in the United States, has dubbed white power music “the soundtrack to the white revolution.”2 Mainstream Americans recently heard more about white power music due to sev- eral high-proÀle hate crimes. Wade Michael Page, the 2012 Sikh Temple shooter, played in multiple white power bands and belonged to Ham- merskin Nation, a racist skinhead group known for its annual music festivals. Paul Craig Cobb, the internationally known white suprema- cist arrested for terroristic threats in Leith, North Dakota, planned to host white power music festivals on his rural land.4 Anders Behring Breivik, who committed the July 2011 terrorist attack on a socialist labor party camp in Norway, also enjoyed white power music, though he reportedly preferred hip hop.5 They are only a few of the individu- als, many of them teenagers, radicalized by white power music often accessed over the Internet. The importance of white power music for an expanding network of white supremacists across the globe should come as no surprise. However, the role of music in politics generally receives too little 1 © 2016 State University of New York Press, Albany 2 TRENDY FASCISM attention from scholars, politicians, and citizens—and white power music is no exception.

  • White Lies: the Empty Signifier in White Supremacy and the Alt.Right
    Chris Knight WHITE LIES: THE EMPTY SIGNIFIER IN WHITE SUPREMACY AND THE ALT.RIGHT The Phenomenology of Whiteness: A Genealogy e begin in darkness. The narrative of whiteness begins in a void, an Wabsence, and myth. In many creation myths, including Genesis and Hesiod’s Theogony, order is wrested from undifferentiated chaos and dark- ness, and order is imposed by a divine enlightenment, a god/monarch who creates light by fiat. “In the beginning . the earth was without form and void and darkness was on the face of the deep.” And by creating light, the god/monarch gives meaning and hierarchy to the world. Whiteness, when it is used to describe skin color, emerges in the language from the Dark Ages and from a multiplicity of ethnicities. A “white race” emerges into a proto- enlightenment and a proto-capitalism and into the uses of pigment. One way to deconstruct the notion of white supremacy is to parse the signification of the word “white.” In order to interrogate the politics of melanin we must confront what James Baldwin called “the lie that is whiteness.” We need to situate this signifier, this whiteness, in myth, ontology, aesthetics, metaphor, and ideology. In a more mundane physical description, white enters the world as light which is parsed by a prism that fractures white light into a spectrum – the colors of the rainbow. Each color of the spectrum vibrates on a different wavelength from infrared to ultraviolet. White and black have no wavelength. White contains and reflects all the colors; black absorbs all light and color.

OUR INNER DEMONS: PROSECUTING DOMESTIC TERRORISM Abstract: The United States does not currently have a uniform framework for how it handles domestic terrorism. Although there is a terrorism section of the criminal code that criminalizes certain actions that are deemed terroristic, these laws are applied disproportionately to those with an Islamic ideology. Political motivations and protectionist interests within the United States tend to prevent similar crimes committed in the name of, for example, right-wing terrorism to be convicted under the terrorism section of the criminal code. In light of the threat posed by domestic terrorism and other trends in the political and cultural ethos, the current state of the law is inadequate to address the problem and unjustly places a stigma on one subsection of the population.

  • Genetic Ancestry Testing Among White Nationalists Aaron
    When Genetics Challenges a Racist’s Identity: Genetic Ancestry Testing among White Nationalists Aaron Panofsky and Joan Donovan, UCLA Abstract This paper considers the emergence of new forms of race-making using a qualitative analysis of online discussions of individuals’ genetic ancestry test (GAT) results on the white nationalist website Stormfront. Seeking genetic confirmation of personal identities, white nationalists often confront information they consider evidence of non-white or non- European ancestry. Despite their essentialist views of race, much less than using the information to police individuals’ membership, posters expend considerable energy to repair identities by rejecting or reinterpreting GAT results. Simultaneously, however, Stormfront posters use the particular relationships made visible by GATs to re-imagine the collective boundaries and constitution of white nationalism. Bricoleurs with genetic knowledge, white nationalists use a “racial realist” interpretive framework that departs from canons of genetic science but cannot be dismissed simply as ignorant. Introduction Genetic ancestry tests (GATs) are marketed as a tool for better self-knowledge. Purporting to reveal aspects of identity and relatedness often unavailable in traditional genealogical records, materials promoting GATs advertise the capacity to reveal one’s genetic ties to ethnic groups, ancient populations and historical migrations, and even famous historical figures. But this opportunity to “know thyself” can come with significant risks. Craig Cobb had gained public notoriety and cult status among white supremacists for his efforts to buy up property in Leith, ND, take over the local government, and establish a white supremacist enclave. In 2013, Cobb was invited on The Trisha Show, a daytime talk show, to debate these efforts.

Jones, October 1999 MASTER OF ARTS (1999) McMASTER UNIVERSITY (Sociology) Hamilton, Ontario TITLE: "www.hate.org" -- The North American White Supremacist Movement: An Analysis ofInternet Hate Web Sites AUTHOR: Allison M. Jones, B.A. (York University) SUPERVISOR: Professor V. Satzewich NUMBER OF PAGES: v, 220 ii Abstract This thesis is a qualitative study ofNorth American white supremacist organisations, and their Internet web sites. Major issues framing the discussion include identity and racism. The thesis takes into consideration Goffman's concepts of'impression management' and 'presentation ofself as they relate to the web site manifestations of 'white power' groups. The purpose ofthe study is to analyse how a sample ofwhite supremacist groups present themselves and their ideologies in the context ofthe World Wide Web, and what elements they use as a part oftheir 'performances', including text, phraseology, and images. Presentation ofselfintersects with racism in that many modern white supremacists use aspects ofthe 'new racism', 'coded language' and'rearticulation' in the attempt to make their fundamentally racist worldview more palatable to the mainstream. Impression management techniques are employed in a complex manner, in either a 'positive' or 'negative' sense. Used positively, methods may be employed to impress the audience with the 'rationality' ofthe arguments and ideas put forth by the web site creators.
