Abstract

This study looks at trends in hate speech communication on Instagram during the 2024 election year. Four main patterns were identified in this study: linear, spiral, circular, and covert. Information was gathered from recordings, comments, stories, and captions that included hate speech directed at political figures and ideological groups. The findings of the investigation demonstrate that hate speech is not only expressed explicitly but also through memes, disguised narratives, and symbols. The findings demonstrate that hate speech is a discourse about power and symbolic violence that is organized digitally. This research contributes to the advancement of social and linguistic techniques for identifying and curbing hate speech
