Discours socionumériques de haine entre internautes russophones et francophones au sujet des relations internationales en crise systémique
Description
This article analyzes online hate speech exchanged between Russian-speaking and French-speaking internet users regarding international relations in a context of systemic crisis. Drawing on a bilingual corpus of tweets consisting of comments published on
X in response to geopolitical events related to the Russo-Ukrainian conflict, the study adopts a rhetorical-interactional approach to identify the discursive mechanisms at work. It highlights the use of ideologemes, interdiscursive formulas, and essentializing
fallacious arguments, as well as the construction of the enemy’s image through polarised vocabulary and dehumanizing metaphors. The analysis emphasizes the influence of socio-digital dynamics—such as anonymity, algorithms, and echo chambers—in the dissemination and intensification of these statements, fostering a logic of identity-based confrontation and the radicalisation of exchanges.
