Abstract

Memes are popular cultural products that has gained significant influence in the political communication, particularly among younger demographics. With their ability to combine textual and visual elements, memes have become an effective instrument for conveying socio-political aspirations and critiques in the digital age. This study utilizes Barthes' semiotic theory to analyze the denotative and connotative meanings of elements within political memes. The research employs a descriptive qualitative approach to provide an in-depth description of the construction of political narratives. Data collection was conducted through two principal methods: literature analysis and content uploads on platform X (Twitter) using the purposive Search Advanced Technology (SAT). The findings show that political memes represent public dissatisfaction with political actors, government elites, and policymakers, making them a strategic informal communication instrument. The study successfully identifies national and international political narratives and situations. Meme products have simplified political narratives, attracted public attention, stimulated critical discussions, and built collective awareness. In conclusion, political memes on social media play a crucial role in representing modern political dynamics and the centralization of media in shaping public perception, as well as facilitating political discourse. By emphasizing the relevance of modern digital culture, this study pioneers in explaining the role of memes as a product of popular culture. However, this research is limited to platform X (Twitter), and cross-platform studies with a mixed-methods approach are necessary for a more holistic understanding of memes in advanced political discourse. This finding contributes to the study of political communication and contemporary digital culture.

As an Islamic community organization, Muhammadiyah and Nahdlatul Ulama (NU) have received an offer for a mining business license from the Government. This acceptance raises pros and cons from various circles.The controversy over the receipt of mining business licenses by Muhammadiyah and NU then became a discourse in the online media, where there was a discourse of pros and cons over the receipt of the mining permit. This study aims to show the discourse of online media news regarding the receipt of mining business licenses by Muhammadiyah and NU. For this reason, the method used is the discourse analysis of the Halliday-Hasan model which focuses its analysis on three elements, namely (1) tenor of discourse, (2) field of discourse, and (3) mode of discourse. The results of the study show that there are two areas of discourse that appear in the online media, namely approving (pro) and rejecting (con) the receipt of mining business licenses by Muhammadiyah and NU. For the tenor of discourse in the field of discourse who agree are dominated by sources from Muhammadiyah leaders, NU leaders, and members of the House of Representatives. Meanwhile, the tenor of the discourse who refused came from Muhammadiyah internal circles, non-governmental organization activists, academics/experts, and members of the House of Representatives. The mode of discourse used by online media are descriptive, argumentative, and persuasive writing styles. The results of this study strengthen the influence of media routines on the practice of media discourse.
