- Abstract
In a political issue, some communities play a role and perform behind the chair. They usually have a different stance. In Indonesia, before and after a general election; president, governor, district, and sub-district election, it is involving the people, actually, become both a user and victim of a political commodity. In Islam community, there are two puritanism and culturalism thought. However, they are often used to ‘get a vote’ by a politician. Sometimes what they have done will make a dangerous effect, like; hate speech, scapegoating, bullying, and slowly but surely, a series of incidents of violence in religion are part of the history of the life of the nation and state, like Bombings in the Church, scapegoating of Islamic activists, and big-on the street protest. Here the issue of religion becomes intertwined with politics. The aims of the study are to know how people make some ‘words’ as deixis, that become a thought and how the thought influences the communities. Data taken from social media ahead of the 2019 election after tabulated will be analyzed by linguistic analysis. The result is there are symbols of language called deixis that appeared in some communities aware or not and they are used as a weapon for destructing its communities. There must be dialectic among participants to deal with in order to create the togetherness.
