🚨 Happy to announce a new publication! In this cross-country study (Germany and Belgium), we (w/ @DesireeSchmuck) explored which factors are linked with reliance on social media influencers (SMIs) for political information among youth. /1 doi.org/10.1177/194016122412…

Excited to see one of my dissertation projects published, in collab with the amazing @azade & @SRothut🎉 We delve into the presence, success in mobilization, and visual strategies of far-right groups on TikTok through image classification. Dive in here: doi.org/10.33621/jdsr.v6i1.2… 🧵

In the 1st paper, @J_H_ohner, @AzadeKakavand, & @SRothut show how TikTok serves as a mobilisation platform for German far-right factions and introduce a unique methodology, integrating manual annotation with image frame classification and machine-learning-driven content analysis.
Chuffed to show the fruit of what has been a beautiful collaboration with @TomDivon, @HadasSch, & @Nikiforovna with a great set of papers: @jdsr_journal Special Issue on on Methods in Visual Politics and Protest: mixed methods, data curation & anti-publics jdsr.se/ojs/index.php/jdsr/i…

2/5 Through a systematic review of 143 studies, our paper conceptualizes mainstreaming as an iterative, gradual, multi-layered process consisting of two steps (content positioning, susceptibility) and incorporating several sub-processes.
Sophia Rothut retweeted
3/5 With this, we offer a new framework for understanding how radical and extremist ideas infiltrate mainstream discourse. Our paper highlights the importance of recognizing mainstreaming as a strategic effort by radical and extremist actors to subtly shift public discourse.
Sophia Rothut retweeted
4/5 The conceptual model, as well as the 12 mainstreaming factors, can aid researchers, policymakers, and the public in monitoring mainstreaming dynamics and combating the subtle integration of extremist narratives into the center of society. #prevention

5/5. Thanks for following along! We're always looking to engage, share, and collaborate to address the challenges posed by the mainstreaming of extremism. Let's continue the conversation and work toward a more informed, resilient, and inclusive society. 🤝🌍

Pleased to have co-written this report as part of the Tech Against Terrorism Europe project. The recommendations focus on the crucial role of human input, ways in which smaller platforms may boost content moderation capacity, and collaborative initiatives.
