September 7, 2024 - Rodrigues, Marcos Alexandre Fernandes

Journal or Book Title: DIALOGO DAS LETRAS

Volume/Issue: 13

Year Published: 2024

This research is dedicated to the dialogical analysis of the discourse of a comment published in the subforum /55chan/, of the EndChan forum, in which personal information is revealed, including names, cell phone numbers and the school location of a boy and a girl, with the intention of fomenting harassment, instilling fear and causing silencing through the large-scale sending of messages, in addition of also threatening life through a potential school massacre. The objective is to examine the dialogical interaction of social languages present in the published comment, with a view to analyzing different points of view regarding the boy and the girl targeted by threats. The justification is based on the expectation of contributing to the academic field by providing theoretical-methodological support and to the legal field by denouncing socio-discursive practices that violate the dignity of the human person. The theoretical framework is supported on the works of Bakhtin (2015, 2016), Medvi & eacute;dev (2016) and Vol & oacute;chinov (2018, 2019). The methodology is planned based on the selection of a comment statement based on these criteria: i) being published in the /55chan/ subforum; ii) being in 2023; iii) promoting doxxing. The comprehensive results allow us to understand that a diversity of languages interact in discursive production, in order to objectify the other target and legitimize an online and offline attack in front of an interlocutor audience.
