Interpreting and Transmitting Kynicism in Joker: The Dark Side of Film Fandom delves into fan discourse and the discussion surrounding Todd Phillips' Joker (2019), examining how white nationalist movie fans employ coded racist, sexist, ableist, and other marginalizing logics in seemingly innocuous speech. Kyle A. Hammonds contends that white nationalists can effectively convey extremist rhetoric under the guise of good-faith film criticism by claiming that their communication is merely an interpretation of a movie. Hammonds draws upon hermeneutic traditions often overlooked in communication and fan studies research to assert that interpretation plays a pivotal role in fan communication processes, particularly in disputes over the meaning of texts. He further argues that fan communities have a civic duty to identify and delegitimize exclusionary interpretations of pop culture within their fandom.
