Abstract (EN)
Eastern society and Islamic civilization, which were marginalized through tragedies, Crusaders, orientalists and cartoons, are now invaded by symbols and symbols and subjected to socio-psychological genocide. Icons and symbols; It is an important source of subliminal messages for the media, with its visual learning model, practicality, impact and open-ended features. The Western world evaluated this situation as a unique method for its ancient Islamophobic and orientalist aims and abused these symbols. In this plot, in which the Islamophobic Western mentality is the perpetrator and the press a tool, symbols and symbols have been turned into objects of hatred. A total of 17 different Islamophobic symbols were identified in 8 media organs of Western countries with two different socio-political and religious backgrounds, such as Germany and Poland. The common aspect of these symbols is that they are used repeatedly in the so-called positive or negative news about Islam and Muslims, and they make many different digital channels buy coke. Another common aspect and feature of these 17 symbols used is that they have visual qualities that include fear, panic and anxiety in popular culture and are positioned in this way on many platforms. The purpose of using and exposing these symbols towards the Eastern-Islamic world, which is wanted to be radicalized and terrorized after the September 11 attacks, is to strengthen Islamophobia globally and to marginalize Muslims.
