Abstract

The rapid development of digital communication has transformed political discourse, with platforms like YouTube becoming significant arenas for satirical commentary. This study focuses on analyzing the use of satire in Kaesang Pangarep’s podcast episode Inilah Kelebihan Pelawak Kalau Masuk Politik, which garnered over 5.1 million views. The research investigates how satire is categorized based on Holbert’s framework and explores the political and social issues critiqued through satirical elements. Holbert’s framework classifies satire into three types: Horatian (light and humorous critique), Juvenalian (sharp and scathing criticism), and Menippean (broad, philosophical critique of societal attitudes). Employing qualitative content analysis, this study transcribes the podcast to identify and analyze satirical elements, focusing on both explicit statements and underlying cultural nuances. The findings indicate that Horatian satire humorously critiques political party-switching, Juvenalian satire sharply condemns political monetization, and Menippean satire examines societal attitudes toward celebrity involvement in politics. These satirical critiques serve three primary functions: exposing political opportunism, highlighting social inequalities, and engaging audiences through humor while fostering political awareness. The study concludes that satire in digital platforms like YouTube bridges entertainment and political critique, encouraging public reflection on socio-political issues in Indonesia. The high viewership of the podcast emphasizes the effectiveness of digital satire in engaging audiences and reshaping political discourse. Future research could explore the influence of such content on public perception and voter behavior, particularly in the evolving landscape of digital media.

Abstract

This study analyzes social media comments related to a controversial incident involving Gus Miftah and a street vendor, using Edward T. Hall's theory of High- and Low-Context Communication. The goal is to identify the degree of context in each comment and explore how cultural and social values shape online discourse. A qualitative content analysis was conducted on 9 user-generated comments from a social media platform. The comments were categorized as either High-Context or Low-Context based on the use of cultural references, implicit meanings, and the need for shared cultural knowledge to understand the message. The analysis found that 5 out of 9 comments (55%) were Ligh-Context, while 4 comments (45%) were How-Context. High-context comments often utilized religious symbolism, cultural idioms, and implicit moral critiques, reflecting Indonesia’s deeply rooted religious and moral values. In contrast, low-context comments relied on direct language, explicit criticism, and factual storytelling, making them universally understandable across cultures. The study highlights how local cultural norms, religious values, and moral expectations influence the nature of public discourse online. This approach demonstrates Hall's framework's relevance in cross-cultural communication studies while also providing insights into how Indonesian social media users engage in moral and religious criticism. This analysis can be used as a basis for future research on the intersection of culture, religion, and digital discourse.

Abstract

This study explores the utilization of Instagram as a social media platform in political campaigns during the Medan Governor Election, applying the principles of framing theory. The primary aim is to investigate how gubernatorial candidates construct and disseminate their political messages through visual and textual content to shape voter perceptions. Anchored in Erving Goffman’s (1974) framing theory, the study examines how candidates selectively emphasize and organize information to influence audience interpretation. By employing Instagram features such as posts, stories, and interactive elements, candidates seek to craft their public image, underscore key issues, and engage voters effectively. The findings indicate that Instagram functions as a pivotal tool for shaping public opinion and increasing candidates' visibility in the context of digital media-driven political campaigns. This research underscores the importance of strategic social media use in modern political communication, highlighting its potential to redefine voter engagement and public discourse

The method in this research is qualitative design with the data are three tweets related about #KawalPutusanMK and about new American presidential election. The result in this research highlights cultural differences in tweets, with Indonesians using indirect, context-dependent language reflecting collectivism, while Americans favor direct, explicit communication reflecting individualism. These patterns underscore the need to understand cultural values to enhance cross-cultural online interactions.

Abstract

The purposes of this research are to find the hate speech found in Islamic preacher Gus Miftah’s Instagram account during the iced tea seller controversy. This study employed a descriptive qualitative approach. The data was collected manually from Instagram comments related to a viral incident involving Gus Miftah, ensuring the selection of comments that exhibited clear hostility or aggression. Using the theory for classifying hate speech developed by (Mondal et al., 2017) and the impoliteness strategies developed by (Culpeper’s, 2015), this study distinguishes six categories of hate speech: religion (41.9%), behavior (27.5%), physical (25.06%), class (4.35%), disability (1.08%), and gender (0.2%). Furthermore, bald-on-record impoliteness was the most often used strategy (45.14%), indicating users’ direct animosity. The study offers a detailed understanding of the rhetorical and ideological foundations of hate speech and contributes new insights to hate speech studies by placing the analysis within the cultural and religious context of Indonesia.

Abstract

  This study examines the representation of women's empowerment in Birds of Prey (2020), directed by Cathy Yan. It focuses on the narrative development of the central female characters Harley Quinn, Black Canary, Huntress, and Renee Montoya as they navigate processes of self-assertion, autonomy, and resistance. Employing a qualitative methodology through thematic analysis, the research applies Naila Kabeer’s empowerment framework, which conceptualizes empowerment through three interconnected dimensions: resources, agency, and achievements. The analysis reveals that each protagonist experiences empowerment through distinct personal trajectories. Harley Quinn reclaims her independence following her separation from the Joker. Black Canary asserts her voice and defends others against systemic violence. Huntress converts past trauma into a source of strength. Renee Montoya rejects institutional constraints to act in alignment with her ethical convictions. The film underscores the transformative power of female solidarity and emphasizes that empowerment is a multifaceted construct, expressed through diverse forms of strength, independence, and resilience.
