Numerous reports have documented the discrimination, physical, and verbal attacks on LGBTQIA+ people throughout the world and the situation in Slovenia, a Central European country, is similar, albeit with its own national and historic specifics. Therefore, we see it as crucial to identify the prevailing negative discourses about the LGBTQIA+ community within this country. In this paper, we identify different negative discourses about non-normative sexual and gender identities in Slovenia by analyzing hateful online comments posted under different LGBTQIA-related articles on the most frequented Slovenian news websites. We identified seven different themes within anti-LGBTQIA+ discourses with the current article focusing on themes of the and . The anti-LGBTQIA+ discourses identified in this article often denigrate the non-normative LGBTQIA+ identity and discursively construct it as inferior to the prevailing cis-heterosexual identity. We argue that identified discourses are linked with the resurgence of the anti-gender movement and the retraditionalization of society and also constitute a form of violence, which is especially true for violence directed at subjects constituted as dispensable, whose life is seen as not worth valuing and not worth living, which are often members of the LGBTQIA+ community.
许多报告记录了世界各地 LGBTQIA+人群所遭受的歧视、身体和言语攻击,而斯洛文尼亚这个中欧国家的情况也类似,尽管存在自己的国家和历史特殊性。因此,我们认为,确定该国目前针对 LGBTQIA+群体的负面言论至关重要。在本文中,我们通过分析在斯洛文尼亚最受欢迎的新闻网站上发布的与 LGBTQIA 相关的文章下的仇恨性在线评论,确定了斯洛文尼亚对非规范性别认同和性取向的不同负面言论。我们在反 LGBTQIA+言论中确定了七个不同的主题,本文主要关注 和 主题。本文确定的反 LGBTQIA+言论常常诋毁非规范的 LGBTQIA+身份,并在话语中将其构建为不如主流的顺性别-异性恋身份优越。我们认为,所确定的言论与反性别运动的复兴以及社会的再传统化有关,并且构成了一种暴力形式,对于那些被视为可有可无的主体来说尤其如此,他们的生命被视为不值得重视和不值得活下去,而这些主体往往是 LGBTQIA+群体的成员。
