“Time to Abandon Swedish Women”: Discursive Connections Between Misogyny and White Supremacy in Sweden

International Journal of Communication 18(2024) Abstract This article explores the discursive linkages between violent misogyny and violent rightwingextremism in the popular Swedish online discussion foranonymous and relatively unmoderated commenting. Empirically, it focuses on thearticulations of misogyny and anti-feminism mapped onto extreme right ideology includingwhite supremacism in user comments posted across 16 Flashback threads. To analyze theextensive data set, we first drew on a collocation analysis of user comments (N = 20,359)scraped from a strategic selection of threads. From this sample we chose 36 combinationsto be considered for a closer reading. In the second analytical step, critical discourseanalysis coupled with the Essex School’s logics approach helped us unpack the logics ofconspiracy and male entitlement, as well as the fantasmatic projections of Swedish womenas both “race traitors” and “victims” at the heart of extreme right discourse in and beyondSweden today.
