Building on an analysis of 26 incidents of online\u0000 public denunciations of public incivilities it is argued, in this paper, that public denunciations essentially involve inviting\u0000 networked audiences to denounce entextualized moments of conduct, which are recontextualized as not only morally transgressive,\u0000 but as also warranting public condemnation. It is proposed that the procedure by which online public denunciations are\u0000 accomplished is thus recursive, as it not only involves the ascription of action to prior conduct of the target in question that\u0000 construes that prior conduct as transgressive, but the embedding of the ascription of that complainable action within a public\u0000 denunciation that invites condemnation of that ascribed action. However, since social media platforms allow for the\u0000 re-entextualization and subsequent recontextualization of prior posts through which public condemnation has been invited, online\u0000 public denunciations are themselves inevitably open to recursive recontextualization. It is concluded that online public\u0000 denunciation is thus an inherently recursive form of social practice.","PeriodicalId":36241,"journal":{"name":"Internet Pragmatics","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":1.1,"publicationDate":"2024-01-03","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"139451852","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
