- BackgroundIdentifying hate speech (HS) is a central concern within online contexts. Current methods are insufficient for efficient preemptive HS identification. In this study, we present the results of an analysis of automatic HS identification applied to popular alt-right YouTube videos.MethodsThis essay describes methodological challenges of automatic HS detection. The case study concerns data on a formative segment of contemporary radical right discourse. Our purpose is twofold. (1) To outline an interdisciplinary mixed-methods approach for using automated identification of HS. This bridges the gap between technical research on the one hand (such as machine learning, deep learning, and natural language processing, NLP) and traditional empirical research on the other. Regarding alt-right discourse and HS, we ask: (2) What are the challenges in identifying HS in popular altright YouTube videos?ResultsThe results indicate that effective and consistent identification of HScommunication necessitates qualitative interventions to avoid arbitrary or misleading applications. Binary approaches of hate/non-hate speech tend to force the rationale for designating content as HS. A context-sensitive qualitative approach can remedy this by bringing into focus the indirect character of these communications. The results should interest researchers within social sciences and the humanities adopting automatic sentiment analysis and for those analysing HS and radical right discourse.ConclusionsAutomatic identification or moderation of HS cannot account for an evolving context of indirect signification. This study exemplifies a process whereby automatic hate speech identification could be utilised effectively. Several methodological steps are needed for a useful outcome, with both technical quantitative processing and qualitative analysis being vital to achieve meaningful results. With regard to the alt-right YouTube material, the main challenge is indirect framing. Identification demands orientation in the broader discursive context and the adaptation towards indirect expressions renders moderation and suppression ethically and legally precarious.

Cyberpunk and industrial music: dethroning the megatechnics

- The contribution explores the interrogation of power inherent in the framework of cyberpunk as an aesthetic and cultural movement. In subverting the myth of progress, the reimagining of future megatechnology through an anti-utopian lens pioneered by the literary genre opened significant new spaces for resistance and radical critique yet to be fully explored and utilized. In particular, cyberpunk conceptually and discursively transformed the subject enmeshed in technology from passive consumer into a potential insurgent, in a sense enabling a liberation from the inexorable march of technological progress, and facilitating new modes of rejecting or subverting the ideologies and institutions of industrial civilization.Exploring such prospects for resisting technology in terms of ideological and political effects seem particularly relevant today, in the face of rapid and sweeping introductions of disruptive technologies with little in the way of democratic oversight, changes that not only promise far-reaching consequences for the distribution of power, but for the very human condition itself.

The Artificial Paradise : A Snapshot of Secular Eschatology in Post-War Sweden

- The redemptive function of science is a central facet of contemporary late-modern mythology, which due to the preeminent discursive hegemony of scientism generally goes more or less unexamined. A kind of redemptive scientism has popularly been acknowledged as simply real and unquestionably true, whereas neither the rationale nor the character of these narratives are sufficiently critically examined. Arguably, the trust in scientific redemption has waned in later years, which due to the narratives' dominant role risks engendering profound effects upon culture and society in general, yet these consequences are difficult to understand since we are insufficiently familiar with the myths that cause them. The purpose of this article is to exemplify the reproduction of such secular eschatologies within the framework of the futurology literature from a period which strongly affirmed and celebrated them. This will hopefully enable us to better understand their character, entrenchment, and ideological consequences, as well as what may follow from a developing rejection of them.

The Bouba/Kiki Effect as Support for Realism and Non-Reductionist Relational Subjectivity through Non-Western and Classical Metaphysics

- Empirical data makes it clear that the morphology and character of language is not arbitrary in relation to its referents. That is, word choice is in some way influenced by the object, the situations, and the abstractions our words refer to. While this seems perfectly sensible at first glance, it is something which is quite difficult to square with the perspectives of contemporary Western metaphysics in which the influence of relativism, constructivism, and other nominalist holdovers still remains.This paper examines the potential metaphysical implications of this fact of persistent transcultural linguistic associations in relation to a phenomenon known as the Bouba/Kiki-effect, and explores ways to harmonize these findings with both Western and non-Western metaphysics with an eye towards addressing the legacy of ontological divides between these two traditions. A particular focus is indirectly on the problem of the one vs. the many, and how the relational implications of the intimate associations between perception, thought, language, and reality may serve to anchor new solutions to these perennial issues.
