Summary/Abstract: The purpose of this article is to analyze Maja Staśko’s book Polski hejt [Polish Hate] as an example of artivism (situated on the borderline between art and activism). The text shows how Staśko reveals the scale and nature of the hate she encounters every day on the internet, and evokes in the reader an affective reaction towards the haters. The article pays particular attention to the kind of amorous investment that the haters display toward the subject being hated on – this becomes the main reason for Staśko’s production of the affect of revulsion and labeling her haters with it.
