历史上，仇恨行为一直被用来压制、恐吓和消灭边缘化的社会群体。近年来，这些行为的发生率不断上升，这凸显了更好地了解它们发生的时间、原因和地点的重要性。在这项工作中，我们提出了一个研究项目，该项目表明，仇恨行为可能经常被最好地理解为不仅是对威胁的反应，而且是基于人们的道德价值观和对道德侵犯的看法的道德动机行为。作为这一说法的证据，我们展示了五项研究的结果，这些研究依赖于自然语言处理、空间建模和实验方法的结合，来调查道德价值观与对边缘群体的仇恨行为之间的关系。在这些研究中，我们发现一致的证据表明，以群体内保护为导向的道德价值观在仇恨言论中被不成比例地唤起，这预示着县级仇恨团体的普遍存在，并与对边缘群体的仇恨行为是合理的信念有关。另外的分析表明，群体导向的道德价值观和针对边缘群体的仇恨行为之间的联系，可以部分地解释为认为这些群体做了一些不道德的事情。通过解释道德在仇恨行为中的作用，这项工作为理解仇恨行为以及引发仇恨行为的事件或动力提供了一个统一的框架。
Acts of hate have been used to silence, terrorize, and erase marginalized social groups throughout history. The rising rates of these behaviors in recent years underscores the importance of developing a better understanding of when, why, and where they occur. In this work, we present a program of research that suggests that acts of hate may often be best understood not just as responses to threat, but also as morally motivated behaviors grounded in people’s moral values and perceptions of moral violations. As evidence for this claim, we present findings from five studies that rely on a combination of natural language processing, spatial modeling, and experimental methods to investigate the relationship between moral values and acts of hate toward marginalized groups. Across these studies, we find consistent evidence that moral values oriented around ingroup preservation are disproportionately evoked in hate speech, predictive of the county-level prevalence of hate groups, and associated with the belief that acts of hate against marginalized groups are justified. Additional analyses suggest that the association between group-oriented moral values and hate acts against marginalized groups can be partly explained by the belief that these groups have done something morally wrong. By accounting for the role of moralization in acts of hate, this work provides a unified framework for understanding hateful behaviors and the events or dynamics that trigger them.
