Resumo
The impeachment process of the former president Dilma Rousseff is included in a controversial Brazilian political scenario. One of the most divergent moments of opinion for the population was the construction of a retaining wall in front of the Esplanada dos Ministérios building in Brasília. This framework has made concrete the pre-existing division of society. This sociopolitical context became a subject in personal and virtual debates, in which Facebook served as a forum for the dissemination of opinions. Given this scenario, this research seeks to analyze the discursive manifestations carried out by groups pro and against the former President Dilma Rousseff, amid comments published in a post on the O Globo newspaper's Facebook page. For this, we adopted a methodology of qualitative analysis, aiming at a sampling criterion, which we present some comments that reveal a recurring strategy in the others. We aim to discuss the linguistic strategies that promote positive self-presentation of the intragroup and negative presentation of the exogroup. In this paper we will use, as theoretical contribution, the van Dijk's sociocognitive approach (1999a; 2011a; 2012a; 2012c; 2012c; 2014; 2016), in order to deepen our reflections and analysis of the corpus, discussing the strategy of discursive polarization. In addition, we adopted the reflections on the notions of Facebook postulated by Malini (2013, 2016), Castells (2004, 2014) and Barton & Lee (2015), Lima (2015), to better understand the support used in our research. The results show that the argumentative constructions used by the actors reinforce the polarization, preventing the promotion of constructive debate about the reasons that lead the groups to oppose each other. Thus, the commentators express the discursive polarization, being concerned mainly with the positive placement of the intragroup, while aiming to disqualify the exogroup.
