“We will kick upwards and clamp down on those who don’t mean well for us”, said Herbert Kickl in May 2023. Under Kickl’s leadership, the Austrian Freedom party (FPÖ) has scored its biggest election victory since it was founded in 1956 by Anton Reinthaller, an Austrian Nazi who had served as a lieutenant general in the SS. Not only is the FPÖ now more popular than ever, it is also at the height of its radicalism.

“The fight will be long brothers, but we will succeed. Never capitulate,” read a message shared on the encrypted messaging app Telegram in the “Southport Wake Up” channel following a tragic attack on a Taylor Swift-themed dance class that left three young girls dead. Riots targeting Muslims and asylum seekers flared up across the UK. This was the same channel that shared manuals for carrying out arson attacks and lists featuring dozens of names and addresses of immigration lawyers.

Can you imagine what a digital white ethnostate or a cyber caliphate might look like? Having spent most of my career on the inside of online extremist movements, I certainly can. The year 2024 might be the one in which neo-Nazis, jihadists, and conspiracy theorists turn their utopian visions of creating their own self-governed states into reality—not offline, but in the form of Decentralized Autonomous Organizations (DAOs).

世界中のビジョナリーや起業家、ビッグシンカーがキーワードを掲げ、2024年の最重要パラダイムを網羅した恒例の総力特集「THE WORLD IN 2024」。英国のシンクタンク、戦略対話研究所（ISD）上席主任研究官のユリア・エブナーは、白人至上主義者やイスラム過激派のような組織がDAOを戦略的に使い始めるかもしれないと危惧する。 白人による白人のためだけの“自治国家”や、サイバー上のイスラム国とはどんなものか想像できるだろうか？わたしは、インターネット上で繰り広げられる過激派運動の内部を探ることにキャリアの大半を費やしてきたので、その姿をはっきりと思い描くことができる。2024年は、ネオナチ、イスラム過激派、陰謀論者たちが、自分たちのリアルな自治国家をつくるというユートピア的ビジョンをDAO（分散型自律組織）というかたちで実現する年になるかもしれない。...

Welcome to the 2020s, the beginning of what history books might one day describe as the digital middle ages. Let’s briefly travel back to 2017. I remember sitting in various government buildings briefing politicians and civil servants about QAnon, the emerging internet conspiracy movement whose adherents believe that a cabal of Satan-worshipping elites runs a global paedophile network. We joked about the absurdity of it all but no one took the few thousand anonymous true believers seriously.

DiscussionThis paper has described the results of a study showing that linguistic markers associated with proneness to engage in acts of extreme violence can be measured in online groups. The linguistic violence risk markers found across our datasets mirrored the known actual links of the examined groups to real-world violence and terrorist activities, enabling us to test our framework. This exploratory application allows us to develop the Violence Risk Index.
