In recent years, women are acting all over the world against gender violence and femicide. This new wave of feminist claims is characterized by the intensive use of social media to spread consciousness and amplify influence. For this research, we analyse three femitags (i.e., feminist hashtags) from Twitter that have been relevant in different crucial mobilizations in Argentina, Spain, and Mexico. These are three hashtags with different functions for activism that have shown special relevance due to their continuity or their intensity in the Spanish-speaking area between 2015 and 2020 (before the confinement due to the COVID-19 pandemic). #NiUnaMenos (#NotASingleWomanLess) started in Argentina in 2015 and called to massive mobilizations on the streets. #Cuéntalo (#TellIt) was initiated in Spain in 2018 for sexual abuse disclosure. #NiUnaMas (#NotASingleWomanMore) trended in México around 2020 to denounce every new victim of rape or femicide. We analyse how those hashtags have spread in the Spanish-speaking region, what kind of social actors have been involved and what has been the role of opinion leaders. All data were collected with academic access to the Twitter API during December 2021. We have found that the most influential actors in the conversation are contingent and circumstantial, the leadership structure tends towards horizontality, and opinion leaders with large numbers of followers are only important in very specific moments. In all cases, femitags serve as a toolbox for action and build up an archive of grievances with a transnational dimension. Furthermore, all of them point out that structural violence against women leads to feminicide..
近年来,世界各地的女性都在采取行动反对性别暴力和杀害女性。这场新的女权主义浪潮的特点是,大量使用社交媒体传播意识和放大影响力。在这项研究中,我们分析了来自 Twitter 的三个 femitags(即女权主义标签),这些标签在阿根廷、西班牙和墨西哥的不同关键动员中具有重要意义。这些标签是三个具有不同活动功能的标签,由于它们在西班牙语地区的连续性或在 2015 年至 2020 年(因 COVID-19 大流行而封锁之前)期间的强度,它们显示出特殊的相关性。#NiUnaMenos(#一个女人也不能少)于 2015 年在阿根廷发起,呼吁在街头进行大规模动员。#Cuéntalo(#讲出来)于 2018 年在西班牙发起,用于揭露性虐待。#NiUnaMas(#一个女人也不能多)于 2020 年在墨西哥流行,以谴责每一个新的强奸或杀害女性的受害者。我们分析了这些标签在西班牙语地区是如何传播的,什么样的社会行为者参与其中,以及意见领袖的作用是什么。所有数据都是在 2021 年 12 月通过学术访问 Twitter API 收集的。我们发现,在对话中最有影响力的行为者是偶然的和偶然的,领导结构倾向于横向,拥有大量追随者的意见领袖只有在非常特定的时刻才重要。在所有情况下,femitags 都是行动的工具箱,并建立了一个具有跨国维度的不满档案。此外,所有这些都表明,针对妇女的结构性暴力导致了杀害女性的行为。
