Abstract
While the era of alt-right radicalization on YouTube is at an end, the phenomenon is reborn on TikTok; the platform’s short-form content expedites the time it takes for users to fall down the theoretical “rabbit-hole” that is alt-right radicalization. This study examines a Media Matters study, through the lens of casual anti-trans rhetoric in popular culture, politics, and social settings. The study's primary focus was how Transphobia serves as a signal for the algorithm to serve users increasingly hateful ideologies, including but not limited to misogyny, antisemitism, homophobia, and racism.
