Figure 6From: Impact and dynamics of hate and counter speech onlineImpact of hate and counter focal tweets on subsequent discourse over time. Each colored square represents the average difference between tweets following and preceding a focal tweet posted in a reply tree in a particular week (Eq. (2)). Results are computed for 82,132 reply trees with at least 3 tweets, over time (horizontal axis), and are binned by hate-score of the focal tweet (vertical axis). Red (blue) squares signify that the focal tweet was followed by a change in the subsequent conversation towards more hateful (counter) speech, with color saturation corresponding to the size of the difference. Event labels are the same as in Fig. 3Back to article page
