Resumo: The recent Brazilian political conjuncture has brought about a resurgence of conservatism, especially with regard to the behavior of a considerable portion of the population which, by embracing far-right ideas, has helped to bring Brazil into an obscurantist situation. Given the relevance of this theme today, this study aims to develop a discussion about the growth of extremist ideas under the influence of fake news in the post-truth era. Methodologically this study is conducted by the qualitative approach of exploratory and descriptive character in the light of the theoretical precepts found in Marcondes Filho (1989), Tandoc; Lim e Ling (2017), Dunker (2017), Gomes (2018), Löwy (2015), Miguel (2018), Almeida (2018), Souza (2016) and Charaudeau (2016), and present a discussion on political intolerance in social networks. during the 2018 presidential election. As a result of this scenario and based on the framework used, we find that the far right used hatred as a political platform to manipulate public opinion. Indeed, the country registered a reconfiguration of the meaning of political life in the instances of power and citizenship.

Diante da relevância dessa temática na atualidade, este estudo tem por objetivo desenvolver uma discussão sobre o crescimento das ideias extremistas sob a influência das fake news na era da pós-verdade. Metodologicamente é conduzido pela abordagem qualitativa de caráter exploratório e descritivo, à luz dos preceitos teóricos encontrados em Marcondes Filho (1989), Tandoc, Lim e Ling (2017), Dunker (2017), Gomes (2018), Löwy (2015), Miguel (2018), Almeida (2018), Souza (2016) e Charaudeau (2016), e apresenta uma discussão sobre a intolerância política nas redes sociais virtuais durante as eleições presidenciais de 2018. Como resultado desse cenário e com base no referencial utilizado, verificamos que a extrema-direita utilizou o ódio como plataforma política para manipular a opinião pública. Com efeito, o País registrou uma reconfiguração do sentido da vida política nas instâncias de poder e cidadã.Editora da PUCRS - ediPUCRS2020-02-17info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionapplication/pdfhttps://revistaseletronicas.pucrs.br/ojs/index.php/letronica/article/view/3554610.15448/1984-4301.2020.2.35546Letrônica; Vol. 13 No. 2 (2020): The Discourse of Intolerance in Contemporaneity; e35546Letrônica; v. 13 n. 2 (2020): Discurso Intolerante na Contemporaneidade; e355461984-430110.15448/1984-4301.2020.2reponame:letrônicainstname:Pontifícia Universidade Católica do Rio Grande do Sul (PUCRS)instacron:PUC_RSporhttps://revistaseletronicas.pucrs.br/ojs/index.php/letronica/article/view/35546/26116Copyright (c) 2020 Letrônicahttp://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessAzevedo, Mauri de CastroLima, Marcus Antônio Assis2020-08-13T17:46:16Zoai:ojs.revistaseletronicas.pucrs.br:article/35546Revistahttps://revistaseletronicas.pucrs.br/ojs/index.php/letronicaPRIhttps://revistaseletronicas.pucrs.br/ojs/index.php/letronica/oailetronica@pucrs.br||ivanetemileski@gmail.com1984-43011984-4301opendoar:2020-08-13T17:46:16letrônica - Pontifícia Universidade Católica do Rio Grande do Sul (PUCRS)false
