Summary/Abstract: The paper is focused on some linguistic exponents of social stigmatization of Bosniaks in the post‑Yugoslavian cyberspace. It highlights the close relationship between the identity devaluation of Bosniaks and the negative stereotype of them. The Bosniaks’ stereotype confirmed by data from cyberdiscussions corresponds with the south Slavonic stereotype of Muslims, composed from both traditional („Ottoman invaders”) and contemporary („Islamic terrorists”) elements.
