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 aims to explore the values of Islamic Cyberculture in mitigating inferiority and cancel culture in virtual spaces. The phenomenon of cancel culture and inferiority is an interesting issue. In Indonesia, this issue has affected people's personal lives, from rejection to petitions. This is certainly legitimate because there are no regulations governing the criminal offence of cancel culture. However, psychologically, it is found that this culture arises because of the inferiority of individuals so that they make destructive movements. The urgency of this research is to rebuild Islamic Cyberculture in overcoming problems in social media. This article uses a qualitative method with a case study approach. Primary data in this research are case examples and articles that are reviewed using literature review techniques. After the data is collected, the author will analyse the data using content analysis techniques. The results show that there are at least four components of Islamic Cyberculture in the Qur'an, namely: Principles of Justice and Equality, Ethics of Speaking and Interacting, Importance of Knowledge and Reflection and Avoiding Fitnah and Ghibah. Field facts show that there are at least five urgent challenges regarding inferiority and cancel culture in Indonesia, namely: 1) Social Pressure and Unrealistic Expectations, 2) Cancel Culture and Quick Judgement, 3) Self-Censorship and Restrictions on Freedom of Expression, 4) Polarisation and Lack of Constructive Dialogue and 5) Use of Technology for Character Destruction. All of these problems can be minimised by Islamic Cyberculture that continues to voice positive messages, build awareness of digital ethics, and educate the public. Islamic Cyberculture brings a grand narrative in restoring a more inclusive and wise virtual 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.
