Resumo: This paper brings an aesthetic-political essay that aims to articulate philosophical categories that allow correlating Black Mirror series’ episode The Waldo Moment with contemporary world political conjuncture, especially taking the case of Donald Trump as a paradigm. In this regard, Waldo’s entry into the scene is taken as a sign that indicates, at the same time and in contradiction, the integral positivization of spectacle and anti-systemic revolt. From Vladimir Safatle’s reading of cynicism, this paper seeks to understand a discourse that distorts the difference between constative and performative and affirms itself through brutal humor, allowing the entry of elements that were previously forbidden into public sphere. Finally, it makes a structural discourse analysis of the oppositions that feed “cultural wars” from total visibility that social networks produce, dissolving the difference between public and private.

Para tanto, pensa a entrada em cena de Waldo como um sinal que indica, ao mesmo tempo e contraditoriamente, a positivação integral do espetáculo e a revolta antissistêmica. A partir da leitura do cinismo em Vladimir Safatle, busca compreender um discurso que torce a diferença entre constativo e performativo e se afirma por meio do humor brutal, permitindo a entrada na esfera pública de elementos que até então eram vedados. Finalmente, faz uma análise discursiva estrutural das oposições que alimentam as “guerras culturais” a partir da visibilidade total que as redes sociais produzem, dissolvendo a diferença entre público e privado. PEPG COS-PUC-SP2020-10-07info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionapplication/pdfhttps://revistas.pucsp.br/index.php/galaxia/article/view/44574Galaxia; No. 45 (2020)GALÁxIA.
