Abstract

This study analyzes affective meaning in the comment sections of Indonesian TikTok news accounts using Leech's (1981) semantic theory and Ekman's (1992) framework of six basic emotions: happiness, sadness, anger, disgust, surprise, and fear. The research aims to identify how TikTok users express emotions and attitudes toward news content through linguistic choices and emoji usage. A qualitative content analysis approach was employed, wherein twenty-five comments were collected through purposive sampling from five official news accounts: Inilah.com, Kumparan, Kompas TV, CNN Indonesia, and Detik.com. Data collection occurred between June and November 2025, focusing on videos with a minimum of ten million views. From each account, five of the most-liked comments were selected for semantic analysis. Both researchers independently analyzed the comments and compared interpretations to ensure reliability. The findings show that anger appeared most frequently (7 instances), followed by fear (6), sadness (4), disgust (4), happiness (2), and surprise (2). These results indicate that emotional responses on TikTok are often dominated by negative or serious feelings, reflecting users' sensitivity toward issues such as injustice, danger, and tragedy. Overall, the study concludes that affective meaning in TikTok comment sections not only represents individual emotions but also reflects collective empathy and cultural values within Indonesian digital discourse.

Abstract

The idea of “feminine energy” has become popular on TikTok, where many women share videos encouraging others to be calm, gentle, and soft as a way to feel empowered. These videos often use soft voices, elegant visuals, and positive language to promote what they call “true femininity.” However, this kind of content can also bring back old gender stereotypes that expect women to be passive and polite. This study explores how the idea of “feminine energy” is shown through language and behavior on TikTok, how audiences react to it, and what it means for women’s empowerment. Using Robin Lakoff’s Language and Woman’s Place (1975) and Fairclough’s Discourse Theory (1992), this research analyzes 10 TikTok videos under the hashtags #FeminineEnergy, #Feminine, and #WomanPower. The findings show that while many women see the “feminine energy” trend as self-improvement, the language and visuals often repeat traditional gender roles. The study concludes that the trend presents femininity as empowerment, but still within the limits of old social expectations.
