Otherwise gee fucking idiots I guess you realy needed a whole research department to figure things out like

•Alt-Right supergroup activity remains near its all-time high. This activity has been high since the FBI raid on Mar-a-Lago in August (Fig. 1).

•The forums with the greatest use of Violent/Aggressive discourse in November were in Health Misinformation, scoring higher than Incels/Femcels and the Extreme Right (Fig. 7).

•Reference to sex crimes was up 13% in December and was up 32% since August (Fig. 11).

:the-democrat: reading this : “Great, its all according to the plan. Carry on mrMcdoofus, keep us informed, this is very useful information, it will come in handy when we decide to do absolutely nothing for the next 2 years.”

    Probably not even doing word associations, sounds like it was just pure word count lol

    they used Linguistic Inquiry Word Count (LIWC) to screen for words indicating “violence” or “aggression”, and then (by the sounds of it) they just counted the proportion of posts from each forum that had at least violent or aggressive word.

    Here’s my violent or aggressive word to add to the count: punch
