In this critical discourse analysis, I identified the linguistic tools and discourses used in the articles, blog posts, discussion forums, and tweets published in response to my article on STEM in Higher Education that identified gendered discourses in instructional language. Beginning from the standpoint of the author of the journal article, I examined digital media publications to understand how linguistic tools such as stance and deixis were used to convey meaning, emotion, and power and negotiated through language. Analysis suggested that linguistic tools and trolling strategies seen throughout the corpus were used to generate support for calls to denounce the research and silence me, as the author of the journal article. These findings provide insight into how opposition to academic feminist work builds, in many cases, in reaction to the recontextualization of the research instead of responding to the research itself
