摘要

本文通过分析2016年美国总统大选期间围绕推特标签# crookehillary和#LockHerUp的讨论，重点关注有毒粉丝行为未被充分研究和复杂的方面。根据对这些标签的分析，以前“正常”和“可接受”的话语类型已经被纳入推特上可以被称为有毒言论和粉丝行为的内容中。这篇论文的结果指出，尽管“正常”的范式重新定位到更不受约束的、不道德的和有毒的行为，但粉丝们还是接受了沉浸在有毒行为中。

The new normal: Online political fandom and the co-opting of morals

This paper focuses on the under-studied and complex aspect of toxic fan practices by analysing the discourse surrounding the Twitter hashtags #CrookedHillary and #LockHerUp as used throughout the 2016 Presidential Election in the United States. Based on the analysis of these hashtags, the previously ‘normal’ and ‘acceptable’ type of discourse has been co-opted into what can, arguably, be termed as toxic rhetoric and fan behaviour on Twitter. The results of this paper point to an acceptance by fans of being immersed in toxic practices despite a paradigmatic relocation of what is ‘normal’ towards more unchecked, unethical, and toxic behaviour.
