Resumo: This article examines the relationship between Spinoza's philosophy and misinformation in contemporary political communication. Parallels are drawn between the individual affections described by Spinoza and the logic of political misinformation. It argues that misinformation and fake news are not mere informational strategies, but acts aimed at mobilizing and confronting. Processes such as selective attention, cascade activation, and framing are analyzed in the context of social media, and connections are made with Spinoza's propositions. The importance of affective imitation, identification, and compassion in group formation and content propagation is highlighted. This study provides a valuable philosophical perspective for understanding the dynamics of political misinformation, emphasizing the need to comprehensively address the interaction between philosophy, political communication, and misinformation.

Se identifican paralelismos entre las afecciones individuales descritas por Spinoza y la lógica de la desinformación política. Se argumenta que la desinformación y las noticias falsas no son meras estrategias informativas, sino actos destinados a movilizar y confrontar. Se analizan procesos como la atención selectiva, la activación en cascada y el encuadre, presentes en las redes sociales, y se establecen conexiones con las proposiciones de Spinoza. Se destaca la importancia de la imitación afectiva, la identificación y la compasión en la formación de grupos y la propagación de contenido. Este estudio proporciona una perspectiva filosófica valiosa para comprender la dinámica de la desinformación política, resaltando la necesidad de abordar de manera integral la interacción entre filosofía, comunicación política y desinformación.Universidade Federal de Santa Maria2023-12-29info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionapplication/pdfhttp://periodicos.ufsm.br/sociaisehumanas/article/view/8385510.5902/2317175883855Revista Sociais e Humanas; v. 36 n. 1 (2023): Desinformação, Extrema Direita e Manipulação; e838552317-17580103-0620reponame:Sociais e Humanasinstname:Universidade Federal de Santa Maria (UFSM)instacron:UFSMspahttp://periodicos.ufsm.br/sociaisehumanas/article/view/83855/62700Copyright (c) 2023 Revista Sociais e Humanashttp://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-sa/4.0info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessMissau, Lucas Durr2024-01-15T17:21:18Zoai:ojs.pkp.sfu.ca:article/83855Revistahttps://periodicos.ufsm.br/index.php/sociaisehumanasPUBhttp://periodicos.ufsm.br/index.php/sociaisehumanas/oaicarlos.eduardo@cbpciencia.com.br||revistaccsh@gmail.com2317-17580103-0620opendoar:2024-01-15T17:21:18Sociais e Humanas - Universidade Federal de Santa Maria (UFSM)false
