Abstract 

Using this data, we conduct an extensive investigation into the phenomenon of homophily in the generation of hate speech on Twitter, shedding light on an essential aspect of understanding online hate speech dynamics. We introduce innovative methods to detect multiple forms of hate speech, including manifestations of racism and sexism. Furthermore, we propose and validate novel measures for quantifying familiarity and similarity on Twitter, providing a comprehensive framework for understanding the interactions among users. Leveraging this empirical data from Twitter, our study demonstrates the presence of homophily and explores its variations across different categories of hate speech, encompassing themes related to gender, race, ethnicity, politics, and nationalism. The metrics and insights presented in this research offer valuable contributions to the development of targeted strategies aimed at reducing the prevalence of hate speech in online environments.
