How big was the Threads discourse on the alleged FHUI sexual harassment case?

Intura social listening analyzed 1,023 Threads posts from 867 accounts between April 11 and April 18, 2026. These posts accumulated 324,270 total engagements (likes, replies, and reposts) and 257,557 likes. Peak activity fell on April 14, with 502 posts and 164,257 engagements in a single day.

Who drove the conversation about the alleged law student sexual harassment case on Threads?

The discourse was a bottom-up information event driven by unverified grassroots accounts rather than media or public figures. Verified accounts made up only 6.5% of posts (66 of 1,023), and just one verified account appeared among the top seven amplifiers. The conversation was carried largely by students, women sharing personal experiences, and anonymous observers.

What type of content got the most engagement in the FHUI Threads discourse?

Accountability list posts naming alleged perpetrators performed best, with the top 1% of posts (about 10 posts) capturing 44.3% of all engagement. The single highest-engagement post — a numbered list of alleged names — earned 18,389 likes and 22,616 total engagements. The "Perpetrator Accountability & Naming" cluster had the highest average engagement of any topic at 431 per post.

What was the conversation actually about beyond the alleged harassment itself?

The dominant frame was institutional accountability rather than the alleged act alone: 78.7% of posts referenced FHUI, Universitas Indonesia, or the faculty dean. An additional 27.1% of posts invoked "orang dalam" — elite insider power potentially blocking sanctions. A further 19.8% (202 posts) debated whether leaked private chat screenshots are prosecutable under UU TPKS (Law 12/2022).

How did victim-support and deflection content perform on the algorithm?

Victim solidarity posts averaged 239 engagement per post, lower than accountability content, while deflection posts averaged 2,016 likes — roughly 11 times the dataset average. The highest-engagement deflection post, an off-topic humor post unrelated to the case, drew 16,103 likes and 2,115 replies. The high reply counts on deflection and victim-blaming content indicate audience pushback, but the platform algorithm still amplified the controversy.

Why did the FHUI Threads conversation die down by April 18?

The discourse followed a typical outrage cycle: slow build (April 11–12), single-day eruption (April 13), peak (April 14), counter-narrative (April 15), cool-off (April 16–17), and a dead cycle by April 18. Engagement dropped 84% from the April 14 peak to April 15. The conversation ended not because the issue was resolved, but because no visible institutional outcome surfaced to sustain attention.
