Asking #DigitalHumanities scholars or social scientists working w/ the internet...

I've been a #solarpunk for a while now, but how would I do research on the community itself? I want a "vibe check" on what people are talking about, the sorts of arguments we tend to have, what texts/theories/people we canonize. I follow a lot of folks, but that's a mix of my interests+auto recommendations. Any way to get a view driven by my research questions, not The Algorithm?

#sociology #anthropology #etc?

Thank you!

Yes, you're right, #STS #ScienceAndTechnologyStudies is a great field to ask too. Especially because in this case, I'm specifically looking for attitudes towards/discussions of technology.

Questions like: how do we (solarpunks) theorize the relationship between tech and society? What sorts of tech do we think count as "solarpunk" and why? What sort of responses do we have against those who say tech itself is the problem? What is redeemable & even radical about tech?
