    The aim of this essay was to study how posters on the internet forum Flashback discuss social assistance and social assistance recipients. Research show that there is a tendency in today’s society to interpret the reasons for receiving social assistance as having individualistic causes. This is in spite of the fact that studies show that the individuals’ ability to provide for oneself often have structural foundations. Representations of social assistance recipients as being lazy and able to get work if they really wanted exist among the Swedish public. It was therefore interesting for us to see how posters present themselves and the social assistance recipients in the discussion that took place on the forum. The study is a discourse analysis carried out using discursive social psychology as an approach, in which theory and method is seen as intertwined. The study consisted of an analysis of 200 posts from a thread at the internet forum Flashback. Crucial theoretical concepts for our analysis were interpretative repertoires, subject positions and narrative resistance. In the study we inquire into which interpretative repertoires that can be distinguished in the discussion and how these are the basis on which representations of social assistance recipients are built. The results of our analysis have indicated that two interpretative repertoires are crucial to the way in which the posters phrase themselves concerning social assistance. These repertoires are the interpretative repertoire of effortfulness and the interpretative repertoire of structural causes. Important in the representations of the identity of the posters is the categorization of a group of hard working individuals and the social assistance recipients as lacking in their efforts. The posters express how they take their own responsibility with the aim of revealing how the social assistance recipients are inadequate when it comes to taking their responsibility. The representation of the social assistance recipients is characterized by a division of worthy and unworthy individuals
