The leading article has been written with the aim of analyzing the critical discourse of women's hatred against women on the pages of female users on Instagram. Based on this, referring to Glirdoneh's views in the field of combating internet hatred, the critical discourse of the pages of four female users active in the field of women was analyzed. To this end, according to Theon E.'s discourse analysis approach, Vandik was considered a special work for recording and extracting information from the text of selected news. The results show that the analysis of the examined posts indicates three types of violence: Against discrimination and patriarchy, against the institution of the family and the traditional role of women, and finally redemption towards feminist and modern values through the lens of destruction, and against traditional values and the attempt to break the cage of traditions. In the overall result of the study of the discourse of the studied pages, it was found that the central signifier is the sum of the studied posts. In the discourse order, female identity is "social". Women must be present in society. The presence of women in society leads to female awareness. Gender equality will occur. Other peripheral signs such as "denial of collectivism", "sexual relations" and "gender equality" form the discourse of female users in the discourse of female identity. This discourse also implies others for itself, often in the form of petrified identities. This discourse also considers Others in the form of patriarchy, inhumanity, sexual dysfunction, polygamy, historical discrimination, etc.

Iranians’ significant interest in satellite TV channels necessitates the study of the content broadcasted by these channels by deconstructing their messages and finding what they have taken as granted. The present study conducts a discourse analysis using Laclau and Mouffe's method on the programs broadcasted by manoto channel. By deconstructing the messages and disconnecting signifiers and the signified the discourse assumptions of the programs will be identified and articulated. People, tolerance, new experiences, having fun, and culture and art were identified as the central signifiers within the programs. It was also found that the identities most frequently represented by the channel were Iranians and Islamic Republic of Iran. Iranians has been situated in the chain of equivalence and Islamic Republic of Iran has been situated in the chain of difference. The channel also uses empty signifiers and metaphoric discourses and negatively represents the discourse of Iran’s government by showing signifiers that are absent from the government’s discourse. Moreover, the channel has tried to include those empty signifiers in its discourse in order to marginalize its rival’s discourse and consolidate its semantic hegemony. Among other discourses found in the programs one could name spirituality without religion and dogma and also positively representing Pahlavi Monarchy linking it to the nostalgic past.
