Abstract

This study examines patterns of children's interaction in Roblox gameplay, focusing on friendship formation, the use of digital symbols, and the social implications of gameplay. Using a qualitative netnographic approach, data were collected through observation and chat documentation of two popular maps: Brookhaven RP and the Mountain Climbing map. Thematic analysis indicates that children form friendships through spontaneous greetings, collaborative activities, and identity-related conversations, such as discussions of school levels. Digital symbols, emoticons, and slang are used to express closeness and build shared social meaning. The study also shows that virtual interactions enhance solidarity and empathy, but also trigger the absorption of adult cultural symbols that children do not fully comprehend.

Abstract

Toxic masculinity speech is a negative communication expression rooted in a culture of masculinity and giving rise to social constructions of maleness. Although global studies on toxic masculinity have been immensely expanded, research emphasizing this practice on social media in Indonesia is still limited. This study analyzes expressions of toxic masculinity in Instagram user comments about Emil Mario, one of the account owners who is frequently in the spotlight and the target of toxic speech on the platform. The research corpus was compiled from 160 comments on 10 posts from January to June 2025 and analyzed using qualitative content analysis methods, employing thematic coding. The results identified five main themes: gender stereotypes, verbal aggression, physical objectification, dominance and control, and rejection of feminine behavior. The results also found the presence of prominent local pejorative terms, confirming the conclusion that expressions of toxic masculinity also reflect local cultural characteristics in the digital space.

Abstract

Instagram has become one of the platforms for conveying information through engaging narratives, easily accessible, close to daily life, especially for Generation Z. This study aims to investigate the storytelling content of the Instagram account @menjadimanusia.id in fostering mental health awareness among Generation Z. This study uses a qualitative method. Data collection techniques included non-participatory observation of content in April 2025 and in-depth interviews with 10 Generation Z followers of the @menjadimanusia.id account for 2 years. The results of the study show that storytelling content in carousel format is the preferred format by Generation Z in building mental health awareness because it delivers messages gradually, concisely, and touchingly. Reels and reflective quote content strengthen the emotional resonance of Generation Z. This study also found that Generation Z follows the account @menjadimanusia.id because they feel emotionally connected to the presented narratives that reflect personal experiences, psychological pressures, or inner struggles, thereby providing positive energy that helps build their mental health awareness.

Abstract

This study analyzes the discourse construction of the local Lampung media, Lampung Geh, in reporting the development of the cable car in Bandar Lampung during the period of February-June 2025. The study uses Teun A. van Dijk's critical discourse analysis model. This research examines four news articles focusing on text structure (macro, superstructure, micro), social cognition, and social context. The results show that the media consistently constructs the government as a visionary actor and foreign investors as saviors, while positioning the public passively. The study also reveals the dominant ideologies at work in the text: developmentalism, which naturalizes physical development as the sole indicator of progress while ignoring social and environmental factors, and technocratism, which depoliticizes development into technical-administrative issues, excluding public participation. Both of these ideologies work simultaneously to legitimize foreign capital involvement and to close off space for criticism of contract transparency, structural dependency risks, and locally based development alternatives. The media functions more as an instrument of political development legitimacy than as a critical public space. This research contributes to the study of development communication and promotes critical literacy among the public regarding local media discourse.
