Survey: Public Attitudes Towards Online Condemnation of "Enemies"
- A Small
- A Medium
- A Bigger
Lately, social media has become more than just a platform for exchanging information and opinions. It's also frequently used as a vehicle for spreading hate speech against individuals perceived to have committed wrongdoing.
The Ministry of Communication and Informatics and the Katadata Insight Center (KIC) conducted a survey on this matter, exploring public behavior when a disliked figure commits a bad act and potentially faces online criticism.
The results show that 70.9% of respondents said they would only read netizens' comments about the disliked figure.
Furthermore, 47.1% would do nothing/let it be, and 22.5% would seek corroborating information for fact-checking.
7.4% of respondents would post negative stickers/emojis, and another 7.4% would block the figure on social media.
Then, 5.1% of respondents would join in with negative comments, and 3.7% would spread the information to groups they follow to incite more hate.
This survey was conducted from October 4-24, 2021, using face-to-face interviews. The sample consisted of 10,000 respondents spread across 34 provinces, with criteria of being aged 13-70 years old and having accessed the internet in the last 3 months.
The survey has a margin of error of approximately 0.98% at a 95% confidence level, using multistage random sampling.
