Survey: Public Reaction to Online Hate Speech Targeting Their Idols
- A Small
- A Medium
- A Bigger
Social media is a place to share information and exchange opinions on various issues. However, social media is often used as a tool to insult individuals or specific groups.
The Ministry of Communication and Informatics, together with the Katadata Insight Center (KIC), conducted a survey on how netizens behave if their idols are found to have committed wrongdoing and are potentially subject to online hate.
The results show that 57.8% of respondents said they would only read other people's comments on social media regarding their idol. Meanwhile, 38.1% of respondents would ignore it or do nothing.
Furthermore, 29% of respondents would comment positively/defend/support their idol, and 23% would seek comparative information to verify facts.
Another 16.9% of respondents would give positive stickers/emojis on social media posts related to their idol, 3.8% would spread information to the groups they follow so that many would defend them, and only 2.9% would follow their idol if they were not already friends.
The survey involved 10,000 respondents spread across 34 provinces in Indonesia. The respondents were members of households aged 13-70 years old and had accessed the internet in the last 3 months.
