I watched your video and I completely agree with everything you said but I have a question about what you think about how social media influences Young people’s opinions 😊?
I would like to ask you , do you think that only teens can be influenced by social media or other age groups ?
do you think that ONLY teens can be influenced because i think its all my teacher said that he thinks that he can get influenced by ai and others things ?????
1- How does social media influence younge people's opinions during elections?
2- How can young voters tell the difference between real information and fake news online?
3- What role does digital literacy play in protecting democracy?
4- Can social media encourage young people to participate in voting in a positive way?
Does social media affect young people in the elections negatively or positively or both?
Can social media boost the performances of young people in the elections and schools?
Will social media provide young people with their own democracy to spread news about the candidates in the elections?
How can young people differentiate between the fake news and real news?
Does social media have reliable information that are a hundred percent true or young people must use another resource of information in the elections?
If I had the chance to meet Nuurrianti I would I’d ask some picky questions about both positive and negative sides of social media in politics.
Like:
1- Do you think elections in social media is democratic or does it create misinformation?
2- What do influencers on social media do in changing the way young people vote?
3- Do you agree with the statement that “algorithms amplify great and extreme views while election periods”
I’m looking forward to know her opinion on these questions
WHen was it that you got affected by social media about some news that proved to be wrong and you belived it was right because of the teachniques used?
What you said made it look like marketting,what is one ourse of action that can be taken to make people understand why things are made to appeals to their values and interests?
What don't people seek the information from well-established social media latforms, I means those of famous well-known entities like the economist for example?Are they not following the same techniques?
Some questions I would like to ask her:
1-How does disinformation on social media affect elections in Southeast Asia, and what can governments do to reduce its impact?
2-Why is digital literacy so important for young people today, especially when it comes to protecting democracy?
3-What role should social media companies play in preventing the spread of false information online?
How can young voters develop independent political opinions while protecting themselves from misinformation and social media trends??
1. Is posting political things on a form of social media protesting or rebranding?
2. Do you think that AI-made politicians will be better in the future?
3. When you post politics online, when you go viral, does that give you legitimacy and authority?
4. If a politician posts online and goes viral, can they automatically win?
5. If AI is put incharge in the future, what can people do if it generates fake votes?
During elections, a lot of political content spreads because it makes people feel angry or afraid. Do you think emotions are now more powerful than facts in shaping how young people vote?
Also, instead of just telling young people to “check reliable sources,” should schools actually teach how algorithms manipulate what we see? Because sometimes we don’t even realise we are being influenced.
I think the real danger isn’t just fake news — it’s when people share something because it feels true, not because it is true.
How does social media affect the elections, and also did you ever think about social media encouraging young people, also what made you be a cyber security, was it because you wanted to be a cyber security when you were young, or was it just a suggestion and you decided for it to be your future career.
-What practical digital literacy skills could schools teach to help students detect fake political content?
-Can social media platforms be held responsible for protecting democracy, or is it mainly the user's responsibility?
-Do you think social media platforms are doing enough to protect young voters from disinformation, or should they do more?
1 ) How can digital literacy help young people identify and stop the spread of disinformation during elections?
2) What are the biggest challenges Southeast Asian countries face in fighting fake news online?
3) How does social media influence voters’ opinions during elections?
4) What role should governments and social media companies play in improving cybersecurity?
5) What practical steps can students take to become more responsible digital citizens?
Waiting for your reply mam😊
My questions would be:
1- If you think social media influences children why do you want to lower the voting age?
2-If the voting age was lowered what might be a solution for the misleading of fake information?
1) In your research, how does disinformation on social media change the way young people understand elections?
2)Why do you think digital literacy is more important now than it was ten years ago?
3) How can schools help students recognize fake news and online manipulation?
4) In Southeast Asia, what are the biggest challenges governments face in fighting online misinformation without limiting freedom of speech?
5) Do you think social media companies should be more responsible for controlling false information? Why or why not?
How does cybersecurity connect to democracy and public trust?
