I’m incredibly proud to share that #OHREP’s final report, ‘Weaponized Laughter: Memes and Hate in the Canadian Digital Landscape’ is OUT and available our our website, https://t.co/zngMcsqyrG. You can find it here: https://t.co/SYWupJTEbQ
One of my goals with #OHREP has been to look at communities targeted by hate which are too often ignored by researchers in our field. The targeting of fat people very much falls within that focus. It's puzzling, because anti-fatness is actually... very prominent in these spaces.

Nearly all of these entries are the direct result of #OHREP's foray into the realm of Canadian online hate, meaning we identified them by looking at source material.
In other words, they provide insights into very real trends displayed in Canadian online spaces.
I'm really proud of the work that we've accomplished. #OHREP is just ultimately just two guys - @SpinelessL and myself, doing the best way can to educate people about online hate.
If you have any comments or suggestions, please get in touch! Your insights are so, so important.

#OHREP has added the iconic Canadian character Winnie the Pooh to Canada's list of co-opted symbols of hate after it was found that online comparisons were made to President Xi. #hatepedia
For context, random references to ‘6 million’ are allusions to the number of Jewish victims of the Holocaust, on par with ‘Six gorillion’ and other similar memes.
Here’s our #OHREP entries for both of these memes.

Hatepedia: Bonhomme is an inoffensive symbol that has been intentionally reappropriated as a symbol of Communism on dangerous fringe far-left websites like Rabel. #ohrep
Commiewave (a portmanteau of the terms "communist" and "wave") is a derivative aesthetic of Synthwave or Vaporwave that is associated with alt-left/far-left/dissident left beliefs like upholding Marxism, maintaining wokeness. #ohrep
