Abstract

Hate speech is the use of language in speech events that tends to hurt the social relationships among the speakers of the language. Observing the bad impact caused by hate speech, this study is an attempt to discuss hate speech and local cultural values in Indonesia. The study was conducted by using anthropolinguistic-pragmatic approaches. The data for this study is the use of hate speech in social and online media as well as YouTube. The responses of the interlocutor are used as the parameter to identify that an utterance is categorized as hate speech. The results of data analysis show that differences in views and ideologies tend to trigger hate speech among the speakers of the language. Besides, the result of the analysis also indicates that local cultural values have not been strong enough to prevent hate speech. Continuous revitalization of local cultural values and character building are needed to avoid using hate speech.
