In Denmark, as with elsewhere in the world, Twitter has emerged as an important arena of public discussion on issues relating to the COVID-19 pandemic, including the handling of the crisis by state authorities and health institutions. On the basis of approximately 140,000 tweets from the period between February 24 and April 28, 2020, harvested from Danish Twitter, this report explores how tweeting about mis/trust on this digital platform can be understood as a kind of biopolitical nationalism. Combining computational and qualitative methods, we identify shifting performances of mis/trust and other affects on Danish Twitter and suggest that this “affective public” plays a key role in the public response to the coronavirus crisis.

“情感公众”

与世界其他地方一样，在丹麦，Twitter 已成为公众讨论与 COVID-19 大流行相关问题的重要舞台，包括国家当局和卫生机构对危机的处理。根据从丹麦 Twitter 收集的 2020 年 2 月 24 日至 4 月 28 日期间大约 140,000 条推文，本报告探讨了如何将在这个数字平台上发布关于错误/信任的推文理解为一种生命政治民族主义。结合计算和定性方法，我们确定了丹麦推特上错误/信任和其他影响的变化表现，并表明这种“情感公众”在公众对冠状病毒危机的反应中发挥着关键作用。
