Abstract

In response to a call for criminologists to consider the impact of former President Donald Trump's presumed criminality, we analyze verbal-textual hostility (VTH) in Trump's campaign speeches. Politicians have particular power and reach with their speech and their use of VTH is an important part of the trifecta of violence. Using a framework informed by linguistic theory and previous analysis of hate speech in recorded hate crimes, we present the categories of deprecation and denigration, and discuss their relationship to domination. In context, these forms of VTH enhance and serve as precursors to more violent speech and acts.

"我们被愚蠢的人领导着"：探讨特朗普利用诋毁和贬低性言论宣扬仇恨和暴力。

为了响应犯罪学家考虑前总统唐纳德-特朗普的假定犯罪影响的呼吁，我们分析了特朗普竞选演讲中的语言-文字敌意（VTH）。政治家的言论具有特殊的力量和影响力，他们对 VTH 的使用是暴力三要素的重要组成部分。利用语言学理论和以往对记录在案的仇恨犯罪中的仇恨言论的分析所提供的框架，我们提出了贬低和诋毁这两个类别，并讨论了它们与统治的关系。从上下文来看，这些形式的 VTH 增强了更暴力的言论和行为，并成为其前兆。
