The role of women in populist and radical right-wing parties is a topic that has gained increased scholarly attention. The aim of this article is to add to this literature by analysing how a female right-wing populist leader becomes positioned in online interactions in the hybrid media system. In doing so, the study seeks to make a twofold contribution to research on populist and radical right discourse online: to explore the ways in which notions related to gender and radical-right populism are constructed in such discourse and to shed light on their argumentative character. The study applies a critical discursive psychological approach to study these discursive patterns in two interrelated social media datasets, comprising discussion threads from Facebook and Twitter. The study shows how, through argumentation and dialogue, the commenters’ position both each other and the female populist leader as fit or unfit, racist or non-racist, patriotic or non-patriotic and as a victim or culprit of hate-speech and misogyny. The implications of these findings for social psychological research on radical-right populism, political polarization and online hate-speech are discussed.

“你真的是最糟糕的种族主义者!”:围绕性别和极右翼民粹主义的在线讨论中的争论和两极分化

女性在民粹主义和激进右翼政党中的作用是一个越来越受到学术关注的话题。本文的目的是通过分析一位女性右翼民粹主义领袖如何在混合媒体系统的在线互动中定位,来丰富这一文献。在此过程中,该研究旨在对民粹主义和激进右翼在线话语的研究做出双重贡献:探索在此类话语中构建与性别和激进右翼民粹主义相关的概念的方式,并阐明其争论性特征. 该研究采用批判性话语心理学方法在两个相互关联的社交媒体数据集中研究这些话语模式,包括来自 Facebook 和 Twitter 的讨论线程。该研究展示了如何通过论证和对话,评论者对彼此和女性民粹主义领导人的定位是合适或不合适、种族主义或非种族主义、爱国或不爱国以及仇恨言论和厌女症的受害者或罪魁祸首。讨论了这些发现对激进右翼民粹主义、政治两极分化和网络仇恨言论的社会心理学研究的意义。
