Abstract

Landscape of Indonesian politics is overshadowed by wide and massive distribution of hoaxes and bullshits. This article reviews 70 latest articles to answer the following questions: what is underlying behind massive distribution of hoaxes? Why do many Indonesian educated publics believe and share hoaxes?  Why are there more religion-based hoaxes than science or economy sciences based hoaxes in Indonesia? The author finds that the massive distribution of hoaxes and their easy acceptance by Indonesian publics reveals the emergence of post truth, a mind set where emotion is regarded to be more important than fact, evidence, or truth. In religius context, post truth illustrates the distribution of banal religion, un-verified forms religious interpretation, in internet and social media. Political competition during the presidential election accelerates the distribution of religion-based hoaxes.
理论化互联网、宗教与后真理:一篇综述
印尼政治的前景被广泛而大规模的恶作剧和废话所掩盖。本文回顾了70篇最新文章,以回答以下问题:大规模散布恶作剧背后的深层原因是什么?为什么许多受过印尼教育的公众相信并分享恶作剧?为什么在印度尼西亚,基于宗教的恶作剧比基于科学或经济科学的恶作剧更多?作者发现,恶作剧的大量传播及其容易被印尼公众接受,揭示了后真相的出现,在这种心态下,情绪被认为比事实、证据或真相更重要。在宗教背景下,后真相说明了平庸的宗教在互联网和社交媒体中的分布,这些宗教是未经验证的宗教解释形式。总统选举期间的政治竞争加速了基于宗教的恶作剧的传播。
