| description | The research questions addressed in this paper are twofold:
1. How can we define an extremist narrative? 2. Can a narrative’s
toxicity be determined according to certain linguistic features? To this
end, we first define what is currently considered an extreme narrative,
with a focus on identifying the differences between hate speech and
extreme speech. We next review annotations of hate speech and
extreme speech, with a specific emphasis on linguistic features;
then, drawing on our results of that review we propose an annotation
schema to label extreme speech. Finally, we share the results of a
small sample we annotated and reveal the most frequently and most
consistently annotated features that could be representative markers
of extreme speech. |
