MORE THAN SAID: AN ANALYSIS OF THE ENUNCIATIONS WITH POLITICAL VIEW IN THE MEDIA NETWORK TWITTER

Abstract

Along with the technological advancement, we see the influence and importance that social networks has and, in a way, assume, when dealing with major issues, such as, in this case, politics. Political debates in Brazil intensified in 2016, a troubleful year for brazilian politics, and had a great stage: the social network Twitter; causing statements that served as an object of analysis from the perspective of digital literacy (ROJO, 2007), located in the cyberspace (LEVY, 1999), aiming at these enunciations as a social practice (CORRÊA, 2002) that enable the ideological expression represented in political positions and their aspects through the multisemioses available on the platform, such as signs, images and videos, as well as all the characteristic apparatus of Twitter. From the enunciations’ analysis, we see in memes and in the written language a position assumed in debate of the one who writes and the one who reads it, which calls our attention to the false posture of neutrality that still exists when we debate politics, religion or any other topic, considering that, as subjects shaped in the language we grow up in, our formation does not allow us the opportunity to be neutral.
