Types of Political Campaigns
📌 Political campaigns can be conducted by various entities, including private organizations, governments, NGOs, community groups, and individual persons.
🎯 The primary goal of a political campaign is to influence the public to vote for a specific candidate or political party.
⚙️ Political campaign content is generally divided into three main types: positive, negative, and black campaigns.

Campaign Content Categories
🌟 Positive Campaign: Content focuses on the strengths, achievements, and advantages of a specific candidate or political party (e.g., promising welfare improvements).
❌ Negative Campaign: Content highlights the shortcomings or weaknesses of an opposing candidate. This is permissible in a democracy, especially when contrasting their programs with one's own superior, more rational proposals.
🤥 Black Campaign (Kampanye Hitam): Content is typically unverified, slanderous, or based on hoaxes (fitnah), lacking factual data and often consisting of lies or unprovable claims.

Ethical Campaigning and Focus
⚖️ It is highly advisable to prioritize positive campaigning by demonstrating one's capacity and plans to improve public welfare.
🚫 Engaging excessively in negative campaigning, especially without linking it to positive advocacy, risks appearing as merely finding fault with others, which is discouraged, particularly in religious contexts, alongside spreading slander.
🧠 Campaigns must focus on rationality and logical thinking (nalar), rather than prioritizing divisive identity politics based on religion, physical traits, or socio-economic status, as these do not educate the nation.

Role of Supporters in Social Media
📢 Individual supporters must also contribute to the campaign atmosphere by focusing their social media posts primarily on positive campaigning.
📉 If supporters widely propagate black campaigns (slander/hoaxes), it can damage the credibility of the candidate they support, as the public might perceive these actions as being part of the official campaign strategy.

Key Points & Insights
➡️ Political campaigns are categorized into positive, negative, and black (hoax-based) content types.
➡️ Prioritize positive campaigning by showcasing the candidate's strengths and verifiable plans to achieve public welfare goals.
➡️ Supporters should ensure their social media advocacy remains factual and positive to protect the candidate's reputation from association with black campaigns.
➡️ Campaigns should emphasize rational discourse over identity politics to ensure productive national dialogue.
