Abstract

This article aims to analyze and explore the central role of new media in shaping and pioneering the dynamics of multiculturality in Indonesia. Data shows that the bullying and discrimination that exists in Indonesia indicates that the homo virtualis of the Indonesian nation are experiencing an identity crisis. The urgency of this research is how new media can catalyze a national identity crisis and pose a threat to cultural diversity, especially in Indonesia. This article uses qualitative research with a case study approach. The primary data source for this article is 9,996 tweets from Twitter netizens regarding the identity crisis. Secondary data in this research are articles, books and scientific reports relating to the theme. The data was then analyzed using content analysis techniques. The research results show that the dynamics of national identity in Indonesia have entered a crisis phase. The identity crisis in Indonesia is still dry of educational touches, so it never touches on substantial context. Then, the author found that the identity crisis that occurred in Indonesia occurred due to several factors, namely: 1) Globalization and modernization, 2) Regional disparities, 3) Ethnic and religious conflicts, 4) Lack of multicultural education, and 5) Influence of information and media. However, the author believes there are opportunities to alleviate this crisis through several constructive indicators: the Development of Intercultural Communication Literacy, the Use of Media as an Educational Means, Cross-Cultural Collaboration in Social Media, and anti-Apartheid Curriculum. The novelty of this research lies in a deeper understanding of the role of new media as agents of influence, sources of potential conflict, and opportunities to strengthen cultural diversity.

Abstract

This thesis aims to analyze and explore the communication phenomena related to the normalization of OnlyFans on Twitter. The dynamics of pornography on social media are a concerning issue. The emergence of several platforms has led to an escalation of pornography content accessible to the public. Moreover, pornography has become more intimate and personal with the advent of OnlyFans as a new type of transactional pornography on social media. The urgency of this research is to examine the OnlyFans normalization phenomenon using a communication perspective. This study employs a qualitative method with a field study approach. The research paradigm is critical with a media analysis context. The primary data source in this study are millions of Twitter user tweets indicating OnlyFans escalation, while the secondary data used are expert opinions, regulations, scientific articles, and books supporting the research. Data collection techniques include observation, interviews, documentation, and Focus Group Discussions (FGD). The collected data will then be analyzed using Miles and Huberman's techniques, which include data collection, data reduction, and conclusion drawing. Data validity testing is performed using triangulation techniques. The research findings show that the escalation of OnlyFans on Twitter has seen significant growth. In Indonesia, Twitter is used only for promotion by OnlyFans creators. Cumulatively, the sentiment that emerges tends to be neutral towards the presence of OnlyFans. However, this sentiment is not absolute as it brings concerns, such as: 1) Digital transformation of desires, 2) Shadow industry, 3) Risk of exploitation, 4) Pandora's box of desires, and 5) Social values. The dynamics of OnlyFans in Indonesia have spurred active discussions, sentiments, perceptions, promotions, ethics, and social norms. The communication phenomena arising from OnlyFans in this study include: 1) Democratization of pornography, 2) Destigmatization of sexuality, 3) Personalization of pornography, 4) Influence of social media, and 5) Debates and regulations. These phenomena can be mitigated through collective intelligence-based digital campaigns

Abstract

This article examines how Islamic Cyber Culture can reduce feelings of inferiority and the spread of cancel culture in virtual spaces. In Indonesia, cancel culture has increasingly affected individuals through online rejection and public petitions, while legally remaining largely unregulated. Psychologically, this phenomenon is often rooted in inferiority feelings that encourage destructive digital behavior. Using a qualitative case study approach, the study analyzes relevant cases and literature through content analysis. The findings identify four Qur’anic components of Islamic Cyber Culture: justice and equality, ethical speech and interaction, the importance of knowledge and reflection, and avoiding slander and backbiting (fitnah and ghibah). The study also highlights five urgent challenges in Indonesia: social pressure and unrealistic expectations, rapid judgment and cancellation, self-censorship, polarization and weak dialogue, and technology-driven character assassination. These challenges can be minimized by reinforcing Islamic Cyber Culture through positive narratives, digital ethics awareness, and public education, ultimately fostering a more inclusive and wise online environment.

Abstract

This article intends to describe the climate of neoracism in Indonesia, particularly in the age of new media. The emergence of new media in human existence has resulted in numerous social transformations, including the phenomenon known as neo-racism. Neoracism is a difficult problem to identify because it is more elusive than racism. This research is urgently needed to identify neo-racism in order to reduce social segregation, particularly in the age of new media. In the age of new media, this study employs a qualitative, sociological methodology. The author collects data by conducting interviews and observing social media users on Twitter. This study's primary data consists of Twitter sources and digital footprints. While the secondary data used in this study is a literature review comprised of various scientific books and articles, this is a review of the secondary literature. The original data is then analysed using techniques for content analysis. The results of the study indicate that the extent of neo-racism in Indonesia is greater than the public is aware of. Various regulations and netizens' criticism of the rejection of neo-racism have been devised, but this strategy has been ineffective due to the rise of neo-racism in the age of new media.

Abstract

This paper aims to determine the role of the Medina charter as a role model in the Indonesian context. The Medina Charter and the Constitution in force in Indonesia both have the function of regulating a heterogeneous society. However, the results of the implementation of the two are very contradictory. The rise of religious problems in Indonesia has led to the assumption that the constitution is unable to accommodate the interests of the whole society. This type of research uses qualitative methods with data collection techniques in the form of interviews and virtual observations. For secondary data used is a literature review approach by comparing various reading materials. This approach is able to provide arguments and reveal problems in a scientific and actual way. The results of the research show that the construction of messages in the Medina charter is oriented towards social and cultural values so that it creates synergy between religious communities. The message of moderation contained in the Medina charter places the principles of humanity with religion as a moral force.
