Abstract

The post-truth era is characterized by the erosion of the role of facts in shaping public opinion, which is increasingly replaced by personal emotions and beliefs. The younger generation, as the dominant users of social media, faces serious challenges in sorting out accurate information amid the dominance of emotional content, algorithms that create echo chambers, and digital social pressures. This study employs a descriptive-qualitative approach based on literature studies to identify the main challenges faced by the younger generation and formulate strategies to improve information literacy. The study's results show that low media literacy, digital fatigue, a crisis of trust in institutions, and the weak integration of media literacy in formal education all contribute to increased vulnerability to disinformation. Therefore, a systemic approach is needed through the collaboration of various parties to form a healthy information ecosystem and strengthen the resilience of the digital generation to information manipulation.

Abstract

Social media, especially Instagram, is a platform that influences individual behavior in building a digital presence. The phenomenon of clout chasing emerged as a strategy to gain attention and popularity through provocative content, including sensual nuances. This study uses a descriptive-analytical method with a qualitative approach to understand the meaning behind this behavior. The subject of the study is Instagram users who actively produce personal content with emotional nuances to increase social interaction. The results show that the need for existential validation and recognition drives oversharing behaviors that utilize platform algorithmic mechanisms. This phenomenon reflects the disintegration of social norms, in which privacy and decency are replaced by new standards oriented towards interaction and popularity. The conclusion of the study states that clout chasing creates a cycle of performativity that deepens social alienation, describing how social media influences an individual's morality and digital identity.
