The linguistic features in social media can provide valuable contextual information for understanding the meaning and significance of social media posts, especially in political comments. Analyzing both linguistic and nonlinguistic features shaped by netizen when communicating on social media give more understanding of the meaning and feeling of the speaker. In this discussion, it can be described that linguistic features of impoliteness language in social media communication, such as the use of marks, namely punctuation, full stop, exclamation, question, capitalization, and syllabogram or rebus writing used to decorate the speaker is more beautiful and exciting to be read and attract the reader attention.
