Abstract

TikTok, as a short-video social media platform, has emerged as a central interactive space for teenagers to understand and shape their opinions on social issues. This study aims to explore how TikTok content influences adolescent perspectives on topics such as mental health, climate change, gender equality, and bullying. Using a descriptive qualitative approach, data were collected through in-depth interviews and participatory observation of content creators who consistently address social topics. The findings reveal that teenagers undergo a five-stage interaction process: discovering content, watching, engaging, seeking more information, and forming personal opinions. TikTok facilitates active teen involvement in social discourse through emotionally driven and narrative-based content. The study suggests that educators, policymakers, and social organizations can effectively utilize TikTok as an educational medium, although limitations exist regarding the geographic scope and duration of the research.

Abstract

Indonesia's diverse society demands a tolerant attitude. However, it is a paradox in Indonesia's diverse society that the emergence of intolerant attitudes, radicalism and extremism, especially those targeting the millennial generation, is fearful, for this reason it is necessary to build a moderate understanding. From this background, researchers are interested in examining socio-culturally based religious moderation in the millennial generation in Arjawanangun Cirebon. Researchers use qualitative field methods with a phenomenological approach. Religious moderation occurs in the socio-cultural aspects of society, such as participating in social, religious, youth activities, commemorating national holidays, weddings, while still paying attention to the limits of tolerance. Karang Taruna organizations are a forum for interfaith youth interaction. The religious tolerance of the millennial generation cannot be separated from the role of education in the family which has been instilled by their parents.
