Abstract

Hate speech acts that occur in the online realm expressed with words of prejudice and negative feelings are far more dangerous than in the offline realm. Hate speech is a new area in the study of illocutionary speech acts. This new area of speech acts becomes more interesting because every hate speech has various meanings or illocutionary forces based on speaker’s intention. This study aims to analyze the classifications and aims of illocutionary acts and illocutionary forces of hate speech contained in the facebook group account related to Batu Bara district’s local election. The research method is descriptive qualitative. The data of this research are utterances/speeches of facebook users in Batu Bara district’s local election group account. Data were collected using the refer method by technique of record. This method is used to observe the expression of speech of the facebook users’ hatred on issues related to social, cultural and political background on each candidate. Record techniques are used to record the utterances and expression of hatred uttered by the net citizens.
