🎉 Big shoutout here to our DIGIHATE PhD candidate Steffi Bührer who (may not be on Bluesky but nevertheless) deserves lots of praise for diligently planning, conducting, & executing this (somewhat provocative) four-country paper 🎉🎉🎉

I may have an educated guess for R3's identity...

All seriousness of this all-too-common bias aside: As born and raised in Saxony, I was immediately sold by the title 😅

...and RESUBSTITUTION and...!

Ha! Well, that's how a plan falls apart! xD

Awesome! But does that mean it's actually their secondary phone and they simply switch to it when deciding to go to bed?

Serving as the foundation of the @erc.europa.eu-funded #DIGIHATE project, Jörg Matthes et al. conducted a large-scope umbrella review (review of reviews) of the field of "digital hate" research, noting crucial trends & challenges across numerous constructs.

Becoming a Vampire Without Being Bitten - Shira Gabriel, Ariana F. Young, 2011 We propose the narrative collective-assimilation hypothesis—that experiencing a narrative leads one to psychologically become a part of the collective described...

A bit of a stretch tbh (not really about time and place but potentially generalizable at least to some extent): the first thing that came to my mind was the narrative collective-assimilation hypothesis? See doi.org/10.1177/0956...

Very insightful talk also by Maryam Khaleghipour from the @erc.europa.eu project digithate (with @kevinkoban.bsky.social and Jörg Matthes ) - showing how sholars in 4 European countries (🇦🇹🇫🇷🇭🇺🇸🇪) experience hate against them and what they would want from the public and other bystanders.

Well, that was quite a lot of fun!

Much honored to be amongst such great scholars, colleagues, and friends...and, apparently, not only considered award-worthy but also (genuinely?) applauded for an awful opening pun 🌟🎉😅

Thanks to everyone (including my very kind photographers)!

And we have TWO top paper award winners because the judges could not decide between them! @mqrmobile.bsky.social @joebayer.bsky.social @kevinkoban.bsky.social and Melanie Saumer! #ICA25

...only to be followed shortly afterward by her 2nd DIGIHATE paper, this time published in @icsjournal.bsky.social!

Very proud of our DIGIHATE PhD candidate @rinatmeerson.bsky.social who recently published her 1st lead-authored project paper in JCMC 🎉🎉🎉
