Resumo: The post-truth era describes times of a subjectification of reality, in which facts are manipulated and chosen according to the personal beliefs previously established. Considering the interferences in the political field and that culminate in the access of extremist personalities to the command of governments, to better understand the post-truth it is necessary to look at how, before it, scientific negationism was used as a political weapon of manipulation of the truth. In this article, we make a historical summary of the origins of negationism to the present day, relating similarities between different governments, and discuss how the erosion of the truth was influenced by social networks. We present examples of bolsonarist denialism regarding the new coronavirus to dialogue with our references and, finally, we present some reflections on how scientific dissemination can reach the other side of the so-called ideological bubble.

Considerando as interferências no campo político e que culminam no acesso de personalidades extremistas ao comando de governos, para melhor compreender a pós-verdade é necessário olharmos como, antes dela, o negacionismo científico foi usado como estratégia política de manipulação da verdade. Neste artigo, fazemos uma sumarização histórica das origens do negacionismo até os tempos atuais, relacionando semelhanças entre diferentes governos, e discutimos como o desgaste da verdade foi influenciado pelas redes sociais. Apresentamos exemplos do negacionismo bolsonarista referente ao novo coronavírus para dialogar com nossos referenciais e por fim, expomos algumas reflexões sobre como a divulgação científica pode alcançar o outro lado da denominada bolha ideológica.Imprensa Universitária - UFSC2020-12-16info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionapplication/pdfhttps://periodicos.ufsc.br/index.php/fisica/article/view/7496810.5007/2175-7941.2020v37n3p1074Caderno Brasileiro de Ensino de Física; v. 37 n. 3 (2020); 1074-10982175-79411677-2334reponame:Caderno Brasileiro de Ensino de Física (Online)instname:Universidade Federal de Santa Catarina (UFSC)instacron:UFSCporhttps://periodicos.ufsc.br/index.php/fisica/article/view/74968/45149Copyright (c) 2020 Caderno Brasileiro de Ensino de Físicainfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessPivaro, Gabriela Fasolo Girotto Júnior, Gildo2020-12-16T19:13:30Zoai:periodicos.ufsc.br:article/74968Revistahttp://www.periodicos.ufsc.br/index.php/fisicaPUBhttps://periodicos.ufsc.br/index.php/fisica/oaicbefisica@gmail.com||fscccef@fsc.ufsc.br|| cbefisica@gmail.com2175-79411677-2334opendoar:2020-12-16T19:13:30Caderno Brasileiro de Ensino de Física (Online) - Universidade Federal de Santa Catarina (UFSC)false
