Abstract

This study explores how social media platforms influence political participation and engagement among diverse demographic groups. By examining user behavior across different platforms, the research identifies patterns that contribute to increased civic engagement and political activism. Through comprehensive data analysis, the study highlights the potential of social media as both a tool for political mobilization and a medium for perpetuating political polarization. This dual nature calls for tailored policy interventions to maximize positive outcomes and mitigate negative impacts on democratic processes.
