Abstract

The article presents the results of an applied research of the digital platform TikTok as a platform for protest mobilization of users. The research methodology is based on a hybrid strategy that combines social media analysis and cognitive mapping. The study reveals that in the electoral cycle of 2021, TikTok had consolidated a significant segment of the information flow, delegitimizing the process and election results. A massive digital stream aimed at creating attitudes of distrust among citizens was formed using manipulative technologies, the hashtag system of the digital platform, and various formats for presenting materials.
