The purpose of this study is to understand the persona and analyze the post-commodification of social media on Ridwan Kamil and Ganjar Pranowo's uploads through Michel Foucault's critical media discourse approach. The data collection technique uses textual observation techniques through the Instagram pages of the two figures. The results show that in the post-commodification perspective of social media, Ridwan Kamil and Ganjar Pranowo's uploads have content and relations with power.
