Notes
Social media has emerged as a result of developments in computer and communication technologies. Virtual communities that have emerged within this field are known as groups where people have fun, spend free time and share their hobbies. In this study, it is claimed that social media youth can see this area as a basis for spending free time, sharing hobbies, finding friends or building an identity beyond sharing their individual characteristics. On the other hand, it is determined that marginalization, which is a natural consequence of this construction process, can occur by targeting a different group due to their specific characteristics. The real-life identities of social media users function like an address sheet in choosing a virtual community. For this reason, virtual communities can bring together people with similar mentalities and values. One result of this is that it forms the basis for people to alienate a certain group due to their certain characteristics in virtual communities known as postmodern communities without others. In this study, in-group posts in the Imam-Hatipler Closed Facebook group sample were examined through content analysis. As a result of the analysis, it was determined that the members of the virtual community, consisting of young people who define themselves as secular-intellectual and dissident, built an identity for themselves by alienating conservative people in seven ways, especially in imam-hatip schools (religious youth).
