Anies’s Rhetorical Magic: Words Triggering a Mass Movement

As we arrive at the final stages of the 2024 Presidential campaign, there’s a notable surge in public support for Anies Baswedan. Recent surveys indicate that the Anies-Muhaimin ticket is surpassing the Ganjar-Mahfud alliance, even with the latter enjoying the backing of PDPI and vying for a third consecutive electoral win. It’s quite intriguing, considering Anies was previously associated with the somewhat negative “kadrun” label and faced criticisms post the Jakarta gubernatorial election for perceived intolerance and political identity issues. What’s even more interesting is that Anies, once criticized for his eloquence without substantive action, is now demonstrating a commitment to genuine transformative change as we approach the pivotal moment of determining Indonesia’s leadership. <a href="https://afiridho.medium.com/how-anies-rhetorical-magic-from-words-to-mass-movements-31f6e9b25ace">Website</a>
