Information Sharing and Content Framing across Multiple Platforms and Functional Roles That Exemplify Social Processes of Online Hate Groups
Social Processes of Online Hate, pp 193-219
2025
Abstract
Established, offline hate groups increasingly use social media platforms to articulate opinions, spread propaganda, and espouse extremist ideologies against collectives of people. In many cases, agents of these groups exploit several platforms: They use multiple social networking sites for different strategic purposes, and they link information from websites, blogs, and various news sources within their social media posts. This chapter reviews research on the complex ecosystem and social processes of online hate communication by established hate groups, the operation of narrative frames within their messaging, roles that emerge among agents of these organizations, and their information linking and sharing patterns across various online information sources. More importantly, this chapter shows how the participatory ecosystem of online hate has gone from a few prominent organizations to the thousands of faceless accounts with the resources and social media tools to amplify hateful narratives.
