JAKARTA – All activities of the Governor of DKI Jakarta, Anies Baswedan recently became the center of attention of netizens. Furthermore, his name caught the public’s attention because he was summoned by the Polda Metro Jaya to provide information on the crowd at the Grand Imam of the Islamic Defenders Front (Habib Rizieq).

This time, what netizens are discussing are the books Anies read. Anies has initially uploaded a photo of himself relaxing while reading a book titled ‘How to Die Democtacies’. He read the book as a free time filler on holidays, Sunday (11/22/2020).

“Good morning everyone. Enjoy Sunday morning,” Anies wrote in the upload.

The title of the book was later discussed on Twitter. Many think that the photo was intentionally uploaded by Anies to insult the current state of democracy, through the book by Steven Levisky and Daniel Ziblatt.

Without a doubt, the title of the book suddenly entered the list of trending topics on Twitter. As of 7:45 p.m. WIB, there were 2,551 citations related to the book.

The comments that appeared were mixed. Some call Anies’s post a ‘symbol’ that everyone can freely interpret. However, there are also those who worry that the book will be hijacked long after it becomes a trend.
