Framing Opini Publik di Platfrom X pada Akun @Pandji Pragiwaksono Mengenai Politik Dinasti

Abstract

Platforms like Twitter (X) have evolved beyond personal communication into digital spaces for political discourse, influencing societal perspectives. One influential figure in this context is @Pandji Pragiwaksono, a comedian and social activist known for his vocal stance on political dynasties. This study aims to analyze the framing of public opinion among netizens regarding @Pandji’s views on political dynasties and the reactions they generate in digital discussions.The theoretical framework incorporates public opinion, new media, and political dynasties. Employing a qualitative approach, this research explores netizen culture by collecting data through participant observation and digital scraping of interactions on @Pandji Pragiwaksono’s account. The data is analyzed using framing techniques to identify dominant narratives and opinion patterns.Key findings reveal two main insights. First, @Pandji frames political dynasties as antithetical to democracy and human rights, using satirical and provocative communication. Second, netizens are polarized into two groups: (1) those supporting Pandji’s critique with anti-nepotism and justice arguments, and (2) those defending political dynasties as a democratic right. These discussions reflect the dynamics of Indonesian public opinion, where social media serves as a battleground for political discourse. The study highlights the role of public figures and digital platforms in shaping societal views while underscoring challenges to democracy in the digital age.
