Abstract

his research aims to analyze Damsel (2024), a movie related to gender role and power dynamic that analyzed through the lens of feminist stylistics. This research uses descriptive qualitative approach and conducted into three levels: word level, phrase/sentence level, and discourse level, following the frame of feminist stylistics introduced by Sara Mills (1995). At the word level, strong and assertive language is used by female characters, particularly Elodie and the stepmother, to resist patriarchal oppression. At the sentence level, active sentence structures position Elodie as the driving force of the narrative rather than a passive victim. At the discourse level, the film challenges the trope of the helpless princess and instead presents a protagonist who fights for justice and subverts traditional power dynamics. In conclusion, the feminist stylistic analysis of Damsel (2024) movie reveals that the film actively dismantles gender role and power dynamic by using language and character interactions. Abstrak Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk menganalisis Damsel (2024), sebuah film yang berkaitan dengan peran gender dan dinamika kekuasaan yang dapat dianalisis melalui lensa stilistika feminis. Penelitian ini menggunakan pendekatan kualitatif deskriptif untuk mengkaji analisis. Analisis dilakukan dalam tiga level: level kata, level frasa/kalimat, dan level wacana, mengikuti kerangka stilistika feminis yang diperkenalkan oleh Sara Mills (1995). Pada level kata, bahasa yang kuat dan tegas digunakan oleh tokoh-tokoh perempuan, khususnya Elodie dan ibu tiri, untuk melawan penindasan patriarki. Pada level kalimat, struktur kalimat aktif memposisikan Elodie sebagai penggerak narasi, bukan sebagai korban yang pasif. Pada tingkat wacana, film ini menantang kiasan putri yang tak berdaya dan sebagai gantinya menampilkan tokoh protagonis yang memperjuangkan keadilan, dan menumbangkan dinamika kekuasaan tradisional. Kesimpulannya, analisis gaya bahasa feminis terhadap film Damsel (2024) menunjukkan bahwa film ini secara aktif membongkar peran gender dan dinamika kekuasaan dengan menggunakan bahasa dan interaksi karakter.

Abstract

This study investigates Indonesian political discourse on X (formerly Twitter), focusing on public reactions to the government's Nutritious Food Program (MBG). It explores how netizens deploy rudeness strategies to articulate political views, grievances, and ideological stances. Data were collected via purposive sampling of ten public comments from the @salam4jari account on MBG-related posts. Employing a qualitative descriptive approach, the analysis applies Culpeper's impoliteness framework, encompassing updated categories (affective, coercive, entertaining) and classical ones (bald on record, positive, negative, sarcasm/mock politeness, withhold politeness). Findings reveal users frequently venting anger, dissatisfaction, or humor through direct verbal aggression, sarcasm, and emotional outbursts. Affective impoliteness appears in emotionally charged attacks, coercive in forceful demands for policy shifts, and entertaining in amusing yet degrading insults. The lack of withhold politeness suggests open rather than covert dissent. Overall, impoliteness serves as emotional catharsis and a tactic for bolstering group identity, wielding power, and challenging dominant narratives. This research enriches insights into digital communication in polarized contexts, underscoring the sociocultural dynamics of online linguistic behavior.
