Conflict and polarisation on social media caused by the Russia-Ukraine War: The case of Ekşi Sözlük
Tolga GürocakThere has been an increase in ideological and political polarisation in Türkiye. Society is divided into dichotomies such as modern-traditional, religious-secular, right-left, Turkish-Kurdish, and Sunni-Alawi; the distinction is not limited to these. The polarisation in Türkiye is similarly increasing on Ekşi Sözlük1 , one of the largest internet communities according to visit and interaction rates in Türkiye. This study aims to reveal the reasons and forms of polarisation caused by the Russia-Ukraine War among Ekşi Sözlük writers who were not party to the war, and it is significant in revealing the severity of polarisation in Türkiye. For this purpose, 8.144 entries on the thread were analysed using qualitative content analysis under nine headings. It was found that the parties were shaped on the axis of Russia and Ukraine/ the North Atlantic Treaty Organization (NATO)/the United States of America (USA) dualism. The majority of these entries increase polarisation by affirming the actions of the side they consider close to themselves. The conflict between the defenders of the two sides ranges from insulting opposing views to insulting other authors. The proportion of polarising entries in the headline was close to that found in other similar studies on polarisation in recent years.
Rusya-Ukrayna Savaşı’nın sosyal medyada yol açtığı çatışma ve kutuplaşma: Ekşi Sözlük örneği
Tolga GürocakTürkiye’de son yıllarda ideolojik ve siyasal anlamda kutuplaşmanın arttığı görülmektedir. Toplum modern-geleneksel, dindar-laik, sağ-sol, Türk-Kürt, Sünni-Alevi gibi konularda bölünmektedir. Türkiye’de artan kutuplaşma, ziyaret edilme ve etkileşim alma oranlarında Türkiye’nin en büyük internet topluluklarından biri olan Ekşi Sözlük’te de benzer şekilde artmaktadır. Rusya’nın Ukrayna’yı işgali, diğer birçok toplumsal olgu gibi Ekşi Sözlük’te de yer bulmuş ve kutuplaşmanın örneklerinden biri haline gelmiştir. Bu çalışma, RusyaUkrayna Savaşı’nın savaşın tarafı olmayan Ekşi Sözlük yazarları arasında yol açtığı kutuplaşmanın nedenlerini ve biçimlerini ortaya koymayı amaçlamaktadır. Bu doğrultuda çalışma, Türkiye’deki kutuplaşmanın şiddetini ortaya çıkarması bakımından önem taşımaktadır. Bu amaçla öncelikle başlıkta yer alan 8.144 girdi tespit edilmiştir. Daha sonra girdiler nitel içerik analizi kullanılarak araştırılmış ve yazarların hangi bağlamlarda ikiye bölündüğü ortaya konmuştur. Bulgulara göre, başlıktaki taraflar Rusya ve Ukrayna/NATO/Amerika Birleşik Devletleri (ABD) ikiliği ekseninde şekillenmektedir. Ekşi Sözlük kullanıcıları tarafından yazılan metinlerin bir kısmı Rusya-Ukrayna Savaşı hakkında olabildiğince tarafsız bilgi vermeyi amaçlarken, çoğunluğu kendilerine yakın gördükleri tarafın eylemlerini olumlamaya çalışmaktadır. İki tarafın savunucuları arasındaki çatışmanın, karşıt görüşlere hakaretten diğer yazarları aşağılamaya kadar uzandığı ve başlıktaki kutuplaştırıcı girdiler oranının, son yıllarda kutuplaşma üzerine yapılan diğer benzer çalışmalardakine yakın oranlara sahip olduğu saptanmıştır.
