  • From Twitter to Charlottesville: Analyzing the Fighting Words Between the Alt-Right and Antifa
    International Journal of Communication 13(2019), 297–318 1932–8036/20190005 From Twitter to Charlottesville: Analyzing the Fighting Words Between the Alt-Right and Antifa ADAM KLEIN Pace University, USA This study examines the Twitter rivalry of two groups of the alt-Right and antifascist movement to understand how certain appeals, launched through social media, may promote material violence. Several studies have explored the impact of extreme political rhetoric in motivating hostile responses, such as the one that erupted at the 2017 Unite the Right rally in Charlottesville, Virginia. The present study contributes to this literature by examining how Twitter can offer a staging ground for political hostilities to swell, circulate, and sometimes activate the call for confrontation. A textual analysis deconstructs the Twitter accounts of the Proud Boys and Oath Keepers and Antifa over a six-week-period culminating in the violent Charlottesville rally. A focus on the groups’ framing of the opposition and use of persuasive appeals offers insight into the priming nature of political extremism happening on Twitter today. Keywords: fighting words, alt-Right, Antifa, Twitter, Charlottesville, Unite the Right rally The Unite the Right rally in Charlottesville, Virginia, which began with a parade of torch-bearing White nationalists and ended in the tragic killing of a counterprotester, exposed the public to what one news outlet called America’s “ugly wake-up call” (Nelson, 2017). Though culture war conflicts between the Far Right and Far Left had been flaring up for months, occasionally erupting in cities such as Berkeley and Philadelphia, few Virginia officials had expected the turnout and turmoil from this event that began with the attempted removal of a Confederate statue.
