Abstract The stem #jesuis followed by a toponym (e.g. #jesuisParis) has proved to be very productive in the gathering of affective publics (Papacharissi 2015) around causes of mourning, after terrorist attacks and other disasters. However, not all attacks have given rise to such massive affective use of #jesuis hashtags. Our goal is to examine how Twitter users claim similar displays of affect for these “other” places. We analyze 297 tweets in which the Twitter user utters a condolence speech act while simultaneously contesting the unbalanced affective reactions expressed concerning some places, e.g. “Any #JesuisIraq planned?”. We observe the geographical granularity of the referred place, the structural complexity of the tweet and, if present, the underlying motives for unbalanced reactions suggested by the Twitter users. By doing so, we show how Twitter is used to claim attention for places that are deemed underrepresented, thus confirming the importance of Twitter for expressing solidarity.

有计划的#JesuisIraq吗?

摘要事实证明,在恐怖袭击和其他灾难之后,围绕哀悼原因的情感公众聚集会(#apasuissParis)在#jesuis后加上地名(例如#jesuisParis)非常有帮助。但是,并非所有攻击都引起了#jesuis标签的如此大规模的情感使用。我们的目标是研究Twitter用户如何声称对这些“其他”地方具有类似的情感展示。我们分析了297条推文,其中Twitter用户说出慰问词,同时还对某些地方表达的不平衡的情感反应进行了反驳,例如“是否有计划的#JesuisIraq?”。我们观察到推荐地点的地理粒度,推文的结构复杂性以及Twitter用户提出的不平衡反应的潜在动机(如果存在)。通过这样做,
